I wanted to be a therapist.

I can do this!
Obvious I can point out a bunch of issues with it now, but at the timeβ¦
Picking up Figma so quickly gave me the confidence and reassurance to tell myself "I can do this", and go all in on becoming a UX Designer.
A LinkedIn Recreation I made in my first Figma class!
