What People Are Saying

 

“During several months of my job search, I met with and received advice from several UX professionals. All of these mentors gave helpful perspectives, yet I was still not making any progress in the job hunt. Then I spoke with Khrys. In one brief conversation, Khrys informed me that I needed to pivot my entire digital presence and helped me to get very specific with how I was presenting myself to be in alignment with my career goal.

I made those changes the following day and that evening a recruiter reached out to me about UX related work. That was the starting point of several recruiters reaching out to me on a daily basis until I landed a contract UX Researcher role at a large company. Thank you Khrys for pointing out the key factor that made all of the difference in my job search, I am so grateful for your strategic lens!”

-Sarah
