UIX NEST
Helping people who are considering a career change into UI/UX with the right tools and information all in one place.
We noticed people choosing to change careers.
A lot happened to be into the UI/UX field (myself included). We found that while trying to find out more about this field, education choices, and job prospects a lot were lost on where to even begin. We questioned if the sources were reputable. Was the education worth the price in such a short amount of time? But the biggest question was “What is UI/UX and how do I get started in this field?”
