#CivicEngagement isn't just about voting or town hall meetings; it’s about taking action in ways that foster a more connected and equitable society—like #SkillsBasedVolunteering. ?? When young people participate in a skills-based volunteer program like Catchafire, they not only get to make a positive impact, they also unlock valuable opportunities for #ProfessionalDevelopment and #networking. ???? Share this with a young person in your life who wants to do good in the world and in their career: https://hubs.la/Q02NKQTH0.

Data can have social impact! ?? I'm currently working on a 4-week project FoodCycle LA to convert impact data into metrics. By developing clear donation-to-impact translations, we're helping them show donors exactly how their support matters: - Estimated $3,808 in cost savings - Enabling more food rescue efforts - Creating transparent impact reporting Turning numbers into narratives that feed communities - that's the power of data! ???? #SocialImpact #DataForGood Thank you Catchafire for connecting us!

Here’s how I’d break into UI/UX design if I could start over: 1?? Learn the basics of UI/UX design principles. There are great online courses, like Google's UX Design Certificate, that provide a general overview of design and insights into what it’s like to work as a designer. You can also read in-depth articles and watch videos on the Nielsen Norman Group’s website. They offer live courses where you can receive direct guidance on learning design. 2?? Put your design knowledge to work with practice challenges. Start practicing design challenges to apply what you’ve learned. Sites like UX Challenge (https://lnkd.in/g2fFqmPn) and Briefbox (https://www.briefbox.me/) can help you level up your skills and start thinking like a UI/UX designer. 3?? Volunteer your design skills. I recommend offering your UI/UX skills to nonprofits or local businesses. This is a great way to build real work for your portfolio while making a positive impact. Check out Catchafire to find nonprofits looking for help. You can also look at the websites of local businesses you love—there might be opportunities to help improve their sites. 4?? Join adplist.org. This site provides access to a global community of designers who can advise you on improving your resume, portfolio, and interview skills. 5?? Get involved with design communities. Online communities like Design Buddies are filled with designers looking to grow in their careers. You can share knowledge, practice interview skills, and provide feedback on each other’s portfolios. 6?? Stay up to date on design and tech trends. Read articles on Medium, TechCrunch, The Verge, and other industry sources to keep current on what’s happening in design and tech. This field moves quickly, so staying updated is essential. YouTube also offers thousands of free tutorials, tips, and advice to help you grow as a designer. Breaking into UI/UX design can feel intimidating, but I hope this guide helps you get started on your career journey. Good luck, you’ve got this! #uxdesign #uidesign #uiuxdesign #productdesign #tech #design

I’m thrilled to announce the launch of the newly redesigned website for the Veterans Alley Mural Project! This volunteer effort involved transferring their existing site into a more user-friendly, interactive platform. With a refreshed design and improved navigation, the new site aims to better connect veterans and their families with the resources and community support they need. I hope this new design will empower the organization to reach even more people and further its mission. Thank you Catchafire for allowing me these opportunities to make a difference!
