"Susana truly empowered me to find my voice as a UX Researcher. With her guidance, I captured and conveyed my experience on my portfolio. Her planning helped me stay focused and work on a specific task at a time and avoid feeling overwhelmed.
Beyond that, I also felt genuinely supported and encouraged to trust in myself and my skills and through our sessions she built up my self-esteem.
I not only have a polished and finished portfolio, but the confidence to go after jobs that I want."

"When trying to make a start in the field of UX Design, I needed someone with knowledge and experience to help me get started on the right path. That person was Susana. She is incredibly supportive, always there to provide advice and excellent detailed feedback on my projects, and always ready to answer any questions. In her 1 month program, I went from being completely lost with an unfinished portfolio, CV, and LinkedIn to having a fully complete portfolio and CV, personal branding, an extra UI case study where I learned a bunch of UI skills, and a big boost in confidence I need for the journey ahead of me. I highly recommend her to anyone."

"Starting from a strong affinity towards UI Design, but with a great passion to learn UX Design, Susana has nurtured this passion and helped me truly understand and confidently apply the full range of skills a UX/UI Designer needs to have.
From discovering my values, to applying them in a new product, argumenting with research-based facts why this product can help so many users, and then fully immersing in a user-centric methodology, the last 6 months made me love my job as a UX/UI Designer even more than I did before!

"I really enjoyed being mentored by Susana, her support and guidance made a big difference.What I valued the most was how clear and straight to the point she was, it really helped me stay focused and on track throughout the process. Her structured approach and the personalized plan she provided made it easy to know what to work on and how to move forward.
The 1:1 role-play session was super helpful and felt like a realistic job interview scenario. It was a great way to practice presenting myself and my work. The feedback I received gave me a much clearer idea of how to improve my presentation and explain my design decisions more effectively. I’d honestly recommend her to anyone getting ready for a UX/UI interview or just wanting to feel more confident presenting their work.”

"Susana was my instructor in a UX course I took a while ago. When I needed assistance in refining my portfolio, I reached out to her because I truly admired her clear communication skills and friendly approach. In our recent session, she not only reviewed my portfolio but also took the time to look at my CV and LinkedIn profile.
