Simeon’s Answer
You might take an interest in food photography; there's great compensation in the field and your photography skills would be more broadly applicable to other industries as well. Food photography is the art of posing food in attractive ways and taking pictures of them to be used in advertising materials.

It depends on how much money you want to earn and how often you need it.
If you are creative and have the time, you can make things to sell on Etsy or in your local art community. If you are savvy with social media maybe you can start a YouTube channel and Instagram account and sell things on your own website - which you can make for free at places like Wix.
If you are looking for steady money I wouldn't go that route. If you love to cook I'd recommend finding a job in a restaurant as a steady source of income and try the other stuff in your spare time, which - depending on your workload as a student - you may or may not have. Good luck!

Since online selling nowadays is very in demand, maybe you can turn your passion into business and sell it first to your friends for trial, and if everything goes smoothly, then you can maybe cater a bigger market
I will use this advice as I prepare for my career.

Danielle B.’s Answer
The best way to make money in my opinion is to figure out how you can turn your gifts and talents into soft and hard skills. If you can't find a career that offers you the opportunity to display those things you have a passion for become an entrepreneur. This will allow you to grow and understand business structure. As well as giving you the framework to enjoy how authentic you are within an industry.
Thank you, this is really helpful.
