Are you considering a career in User Experience/User Interface Design, but have no idea how to navigate the industry to actually land your first role? Or maybe you've taken some courses but still don't feel confident or that your work is good enough?
I totally feel you! I was there and had all of the same questions you've probably had at one time or another. That's why I created this 1:1 coaching program! I also know how frustrating and lonely it can be trying to navigate a new space. So let me help you stop doubting yourself, your work, and your ability to get the results you want. Oh, and did I mention these sessions are 100% custom crafted around your needs?
My coaching sessions are aimed to help aspiring & entry level UX Designers, UX Researchers, Product Designers & User Interface (UI) Designers feel equipped for everything from putting together a successful portfolio to performing well on the job. These sessions can include but are not limited to topics on: UX career guidance, project feedback, portfolio feedback, advice on bootcamps, interview preparations, issues that have arisen on the job, etc. I am your source of all things UX and UI, so come prepared with your projects, questions, concerns, or anything else you’d like to discuss.
1:1 coaching is not intended to be working sessions. The actual work will be done at the conclusion of our call once you have received your feedback and resources document from me, which will include all of your action items. During the sessions, we'll hone in on your pain points, break them down, and you'll receive direction on how to better tackle them in order to reach your goals.
I got tired of playing small. I came from a background in interactive arts, however I never learned how to bridge the gap between what I created and those who used it. I also wanted a more meaningful career and simultaneously knew there was more I could do with my design skills.
After a few years of working as a Graphic Designer, I decided to grab a hold of my career and enrolled into a UX course where I learned the ins and outs of User Experience Design. However, after my course I figured out what it really took to land my first UX role. I learned not only what it meant to present myself through my portfolio, but over phone interviews, in person interviews, etc. I uncovered what it took to get in the door! Because of that, I was able to land two roles at large companies, and you can too!
Landed another one that I love at a larger company with more responsibilities.
Had the honor of mentoring several clients along their UX journey before I launched my UX coaching service.
Built multiple platforms around my expertise that have over 3,000 unique visitors each month.
Mentored elementary and high school STEM students.

"I really appreciate you taking the time to offer me a coaching session. I found your tips and advice to be very helpful and I have already implemented them into my portfolio and work. If I ever need more coaching I will definitely be contacting you. Thanks again!"
