Career Coaching for Designers
Past client reviews
“At a pivotal moment in my career, Jenny helped me understand what I needed to do in order to breakthrough. Having been in the industry for many years, she was able to introduce me to creative ways of problem solving and resources that I didn't know about. One of my goals with coaching and mentorship was to get into management and by the end of the year, that actually happened! Jenny is an amazing coach and when you speak with her she just has this calm and "everything is going to be okay" feeling that is unmatched.”
–Salina Kalitha, Product Design Manager at Mosaic
“I had a fantastic coaching experience working with Jenny during KP Digitals' product team transformation. She was very easy to work with. Her calm demeanor and strong communication skills foster an environment that drives her to pinpoint areas of opportunity. In a nutshell, I would say when it comes to coaching/teaching product designers/product discovery teams she's a rockstar.”
–Cristian Pineda, UX Designer at Kaiser Permanente
“Not only did Jenny help me increase my skillset in many areas in UX design, from strategy to user research, also, she helped me approach design challenges in a new set of light. Thanks to Jenny I've grown more as a UX designer these couple of months than in the last couple of years.”
–Rasmus Gripenfrid, UX Designer and Researcher at Dreamdata
“It was a pleasure to have Jenny as a coach over the course of a year. She worked with me to assess my skills, improve my design project management and projection skills, and create thought leadership pieces to share with the community. Would gladly work with her again!”
