My name is Jay and I have a master of interaction design degree. I am also a UX/UI engineer | Frontend Engineer | Tutor based in Melbourne. I like to help people to get a job without a formal degree and share my knowledge with others. I have specialized in UX/UI and frontend development in order to make sure people use great products.

What learning plans should I choose?
The Lite plan is for people who just want to learn front-end and UX/UI skills but you do not know where to start. Also, you have limited time to learn.
The Standard plan is for you to want to become an awesome junior front-end developer with strong UX/UI skills.
The Pro plan I will make it my priority to support you in order to achieve your goals with a detailed explanation.
I highly suggest that people who want to improve their UX/UI design skills and front-end development apply for the mentorship program.

I recently sought mentorship to elevate my coding journey, which had hit a plateau while working in isolation. This decision led me to Jay, whose guidance quickly became a catalyst for my growth. Jay provided invaluable code reviews, offering a critical eye and constructive feedback that sharpened my skills considerably. Beyond the technical, he advised me to channel my efforts into select areas rather than spreading myself thin across multiple disciplines. His strategic approach to learning and his rich trove of resources have notably advanced my UI/UX capabilities. Engaging with Jay, I not only gained a mentor but also a storyteller who enriched our sessions with insights from the tech industry. I am deeply appreciative of the direction and mentorship Jay has provided, which has been a pivotal part of my development in the tech field.
