Looking for a UX/UI & Graphic Design Mentor to Help Me Grow
Hi everyone,
I'm currently working as a UX/UI Designer with about 1 year of professional experience, and I'm looking for a mentor who can help me grow in the right direction.
While I've learned a lot on the job, I feel like I've reached a point where I need guidance from someone more experienced. I want to improve not just my design skills but also understand what the industry expects from designers today.
Here are a few areas where I'm looking for guidance:
Building stronger UX thinking and problem-solving skills.
Improving my visual and graphic design skills.
Understanding current market standards and hiring expectations.
Learning industry best practices, workflows, and tools.
Reviewing and upgrading my portfolio to make it more competitive.
Identifying skill gaps and creating a roadmap for continuous growth.
I'm eager to learn, open to constructive feedback, and willing to put in the effort. Even if you can't mentor me long-term, I'd really appreciate portfolio reviews, career advice, or recommendations for communities, resources, or people I should follow.
If you're interested in mentoring or have any advice, please comment below or send me a DM.
Thank you so much!
About me: I'm comfortable with UX/UI design fundamentals, Figma, and have experience working on real-world projects. I'm now looking to level up my skills and build a portfolio that meets current industry standards.
