A collection of articles I’ve written about design and my career.

A coffee a day, for 5 days - Informational Interview Project

The concept of this project was to carry out 5 different informational interviews with 5 different UX professionals over the course of 5 days. Throughout the interviews I would learn about the UX professionals’ story and journey into the design field, receive advice for junior designers such as myself, and get a chance to have my portfolio reviewed live.

At the end of each interview, I summarized the discussion and feedback into its own article on Medium.
