About

đź‘‹ Hey, I'm Philip.
– From neuroscience to tech, I’ve pursued design in a way that looks unconventional on paper, but giving me a uniquely broad and indispensable skillset.
– Please see my portfolio/Linkedin/testimonials and reviews below for more info on my background and work experiences that I can't fit into this bio :)
– Lastly, I'm not here to nickel and dime you. I want to help you with your questions or needs as best I can while I'm working full-time simultaneously. I definitely don’t know everything, but I’d love to share what was shared with me.

A little about what I can offer...

â‘  Crafting successful UX design and research resumes and portfolios for UX pros!

âś… As a Career Services Counselor, I counseled 2000+ graduate students through resume critiques and portfolio reviews.
âś… As a senior UX professional working throughout Fortune 100 companies over the years, I've reviewed and participated in hundreds of resume and portfolio reviews, job interviews, and case study presentations as part of the hiring process.
âś… I am able to leverage my experience to help you âť—land a job interviewâť— in the tech field whether you're a fresh grad or a seasoned professional looking to make a career change or just optimize your application -- I'm happy to help!

② Tailored UX research services to help you understand your users and build better products and services for them.

âś… I have developed a strong research background and understanding of the design and research process,
âś… communicated insights that advised and impacted product strategy and decisions,
âś… focused on human-centered design approaches and methodologies in the pursuit of asking questions ultimately intended to expose the essence of the human condition,
âś… acquired deep expertise in a range of emerging technology products such as VR/AR, blockchain, cloud, voice assistants, artificial intelligence, and smart grocery shopping tech.

I enjoyed the mentorship with Phillip. He was knowledgable about the job application process and provided helpful tips such as connecting with people on LinkedIn and how to answer behavioral questions during the interview. He was very supportive, quick to respond to messages, and helped assuage many of my concerns at key moments in my job search. I had a very good experience with Phillip as a mentor.
