Session

From Trashcan Blogger to Forbes Listmaker

Can you go from starting out as a self-taught UX designer to Forbes 30 under 30 in just 3 years? Apparently!

In this session, I break down the steps that ultimately landed me on the Forbes List. And yes, while trashcan blogging played a big part, there was more to it than my inconsistently published blog posts: a newsletter, professional development, speaker engagements, teaching in a coding boot camp, workshops, volunteering, community work, the oh so dreadful networking… You can do a lot in 3 years!

Career progression doesn't have to be linear, but your motivation has to be consistent. Easier said than done! Take the steps from my roadmap and formulate your own blueprint for career progression and job security from it!
