So, a few thoughts:
- depending on your current compensation, an entry level PM or design role might still be a leg up in terms of income, so your age probably isn't a meaningful obstacle here
- ideologically, the orgs that are in a position to offer the best compensation and resources for new designers / PMs are also less likely the ones that are going to be left-aligned, so you may have to compromise there in order to get some experience in the discipline and also get paid decently (there may be a path through open source projects, but that means basically doing unpaid labor in your free time)
- General Assembly and a couple other groups have crash courses that can get you up to speed in either discipline. They're not cheap, but I've worked with a couple folks who've gone through those programs and they seem like a decent way to get your foot in the door
- I've been working in PM for close to 12 years now, I'd be happy to meet up for coffee and chat, and I know a lot of designers and PMs. I'd be happy to put you in touch with them as well.
