👋 About the author

Hello! My name's Nick Groeneveld. I'm a senior UX and product designer from the Netherlands.

For the past 10 years, I've worked on many projects from government work to startups and everything in between. While doing so, I've coached designers on my team and individuals outside of my project, mostly to help them learn UX and get hired.

To help make that happen, I've created The Designer's Toolbox as a platform to teach UX. This course is one of the many resources you can find over there.

So if you want to grow as a designer, please check it out. I'd be super excited to help you and your design career.

Nick.
