♡ It took me 3 years of navigating career setbacks and opportunities. I went from being laid off as an Executive Assistant in LA to landing a role as a Senior UX designer in New York. In this video, I document my journey from being an assistant while living with family, going through a UX bootcamp, freelancing, and working at a design/web3 agencies to finally making it in the corporate UX world. It’s been a rollercoaster, but every challenge was worth it. Watch as I share the highs, lows, and everything in between that led me to where I am today. For anyone thinking about a career change or going through tough times, I hope this video inspires you to keep pushing forward.
