nonprofessionally

In amateur fashion

In a manner not relating to or characteristic of a profession or professional standards.

Someone who paints nonprofessionally does it as a hobby rather than for a living: She trained as an architect but now sculpts nonprofessionally.

The word can also suggest amateurish quality: The report was nonprofessionally prepared.
