Deep dive into your goals, attack plan, content, organization, story, and visual language. I'll break it all down and give you actionable steps to address any issues, tailor it to align with your goals, and suggest any other explorations or projects to add.
Your mentor
Hello! I'm Derek. I'm new to mentorcruise - but not new to mentoring! ;)
I originally went to school for art, but since 2011 I've been designing and building things for the web. It sure was a rough road to learn all of those things. I ended up reverse engineering my experience into a 9-month boot-camp-like mentorship program at Perpetual Education. However, that track is all-in and from zero to hero. That's not the right fit for everyone. I'm here at mentorcruise to meet people at different stages of their journey who want to make a serious plan and get down to business. Is that you? Let's talk about it.
