About this session

A strong portfolio can open doors, but only if it clearly shows what you can do and why it matters. This MentorCruise session is designed to help you improve how your work is presented, whether you are applying for jobs, pitching clients, or building credibility in your field. If your portfolio feels scattered, outdated, or not quite convincing enough, this session gives you practical feedback on how to strengthen it.

You’ll work with an experienced mentor to review your portfolio through the eyes of a hiring manager, client, or industry peer. Together, you can assess the quality of your project selection, case studies, storytelling, structure, and presentation, and identify what is missing or not landing. The goal is to leave with clearer direction on how to make your portfolio more focused, more compelling, and more effective at creating opportunities.

Our sessions were insightful and transformative. He listened carefully and helped me zoom out to understand situations, dynamics, and broader whys to help me strengthen my organizational awareness and providing actionable steps to advance my career. Each conversation offered valuable takeaways and fresh perspectives that enabled me to view challenges from both higher altitude and systems perspectives. As designers, our work is often valued and judged by pixels, even though we possess good judgment and opportunities to extend our thinking and bring unique voices to the table. Daan is a leader with extensive experience who helps shape systematic thinking about how design can strategically influence and create impact. Grab some time with Daan if you're at a career stage where you're seeking opportunities to grow, lead, and make broader impact.”
