My name is Jarred Kirkland and I am a UX Designer. I started out working at customer service jobs from being a server/bartender to being a team lead at call centers and factory jobs.
It definitely gave me a great work ethic of creating solutions to any problem and working well with all types of people and their different personalities which I learned are major contributions to being a UX Designer. After years of working these jobs I knew there was something more I could be doing with my life and also bringing something greater to the table. I stumbled across UX/UI design and instantly I knew this would be a career I can excel in and this transition needed to happen now. To ensure I had all the skills needed to be a successful UX designer, I did some research, signed up and completed a certificate program in UX Design where I learned to implement design process thinking based on brainstorming, ideating, and empathizing while understanding the terminology and user research of UX/UI design.
