Reminiscing on my transition into UX Design, it was quite a tough path.

These challenged and fueled my resolve to helping entry-level designers have a smoother experience, making it easier to transition and grow sustainably.

During my UX design bootcamp, one invaluable piece of advice from my mentor was to study and replicate the work of those who inspire you. 🚀 When I started out, I spent countless hours analyzing designs from industry leaders, deconstructing their elements, and recreating them. I wasn’t just copying for the sake of copying; I took the time to understand the principles and techniques that make their designs effective. This approach provided a solid foundation for developing my own unique style and innovating beyond what I had learned. If you’re a new designer, I encourage you to embrace this practice. It’s a powerful way to accelerate your learning and build a strong foundation for your future creations. #Design #Learning #Creativity #DesignThinking #SkillBuilding #GraphicDesign #UserExperience

"Keep it simple," they said. 🤔 But designing for Gen Z taught me otherwise. 🎨 Working on Interacts, our collaborative platform for students, I discovered: Gen Z doesn't want simple. They want REAL. 💯 🔍 They crave depth, not just snackable content. 🤝 They value inclusivity and accessibility by default. 🎨 They appreciate imperfection over polished facades. My approach shifted: 🔄 • Prioritize authenticity over sleek design ✨ • Encourage critical thinking within the UX 🧠 • Keeping Functionality over aesthetics. ⚙️ Gen Z challenged me to be a better designer. 🚀 How has designing for younger users changed YOUR perspective? 🤔 #UXDesign #GenZDesign #ProductDevelopment #AuthenticDesign #UserExperience #DigitalInclusion
