I started in high school. In grade 10, I started to use photoshop and illustrator to mess around, photo manipulate and such but then nearing the end of grade 11 and 12 I suddenly had all these opportunities such as designing the yearbook, entering district competitions, and doing promos. So roughly 2-3 years.
Side note:
I had applied for 4 universities and the one I went to was the last school I applied for because hell, no way I thought I'd get in. But then I was accepted shortly after my portfolio interview and that surprised me later because I had heard many people were not accepted for at least 2 months. I saw it as a once in a life time opportunity that the university offered me so I thought I'd try it.
