Hope you've succeeded. It's really not difficult
This is totally true. I studied mass communication as an undergraduate, started learning UI/UX Design in 300L. Currently working in a fintech company in Nigeria.
Thank you so much
Hi please can you help out, I’m really interested in learning
Wow, impressive!
@Meshileya Seyi
Hi I am currently studying Ux design and will love to get into a fintech company. Could you give some guidance on how you would apply to these companies with no experience beyond your portfolio projects
Thank you so much for sharing your story. I so often hear folks trying to get into UX asking how to break into the industry or how to learn the tools. Sharon answered this perfectly. Its a slow build up of knowledge and plateauing. You just need to start somewhere. As you learn more, you open up new doors and realize you know nothing again (plateauing). Then you learn more and open up more advanced doors. The trick is to stay curious. I've been designing for 12 years and my self-taught story is extremely similar to Sharon's and I'm still opening those doors. I think a lot of aspiring designers are intimidated by people who have experience because they so rarely see the self-taught history behind that experience person's career. There's nothing to be afraid of, open the door.
This is so true! Thank you so much for this
Right!
Our UX journey is 100% exact. I’m also self taught.
Graphic design - WordPress - Front end development - UI/UX - Lagos to Europe (Netherlands for me)🚀
Nice to see that I have an exact story as someone else👌🏾
Amazing! Well done ✨✨✨
hey man ✌🏽just stated a career in product design looking to get a few tips for you ,oh i also listen to a butt load of gospel rap 😌
What’s your Snapchat or IG bro. Would like to connect if you don’t mind.
This was confirmation that I should try my hand at coding. Your story is inspiring, Sharon. Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Thanks for watching ❤️
definitely try coding, the most you'll ever really know for ui/ux design is html css, and even a little javascript if that. All relatively easy languages! Helps with interviews
thank you, so much soul and heart in you :) not just mind and intellect as in many I watched
U’re an amazing person, thank you for your advice, I’m only starting my way to UX design. I hope to see your new videos. Thank you🌸
Hello Sharon. Happy the RUclips algorithm directed me to your video on us design. Am venturing into graphic dedign, but interested in ux/ product design! Thanks for sharing.
Wow 👏! Thank you so much for sharing, you’re definitely an inspiration for my self-studying journey into UX Design!
Thank you so much and wishing you all the best ❤️
Thank you Sharon, this video is such an encouragement cause I'm about to start my journey, I believe I'd do so well
Hi Sharon my Estate Management people, Just randomly found you on youtube while looking up ui/ux designer, you're got really informative content, thanks for sharing
Thank you so much for sharing your story Sharon, I'm also a student in a totally different field,I"ll keep trying to improve though I'm just starting out now.
Thank you so much for watching
Thank you for posting, I’m currently just starting my journey. Please continue to post helpful tips.
Thank youuu so so much and wishing you all the best on your journey ❤️
Great video, Sharon.
Hi Sharon, Good morning, Thanks for sharing your experience and your journey to UX, I already purchased your UX-Design-Self-Study-Resources but don't even know where to start from, kindly give me a guide and learning mode I can use.
I currently work as a graphic designer
Very helpful. Thank you, Sharon!
Thank you so much Sharon for sharing.
I am inspired by your story I'm currently a final year Pharmacy student and I've wanted to learn design since my 300 level days.
I just had to start learning late last year and I'm enjoying the journey but then inferiority complex kicked and I'm struggling.
Watching your video rn has really inspired me to give it my all.
Thank you 😊
Thank you so much for your kind words and wishing you all the best ❤️
I just started my journey this week in UI/ UX, currently at the research stage, it has been my goal for a while, I guess I'll be spending a lot of hours on your channel, like you did on others' channel when you started out😃
You have been very helpful, thanks Sharon!
Great
Hi, Sharon. I hope you see this comment. I find your story very inspiring. I studied theatre arts in Lagos state university. I currently do a lot of musical theatre performances in Lagos and sometimes travel but I am currently in a place where I need to change my career path. In 2020 during the pandemic, I learned web designing using WordPress and Wix and I've taken on free gigs. I also enjoy playing a lot with Canva. Recently, someone told about UI/UX design and I think it's a path I'd love to narrow into. I have started taking free courses on Alison and Coursera. Just want to say thank you for sharing your story. I hope to get as much info and materials needed to become useful In the tech world.
Thank you so much for your kind words, wishing you all the best ❤️
Thanks for all the info Sharon 🌼 this is a burgeoning field and something I want to move into in the nearby future, so thanks again!
Amazing process Onyinye. I am watching from University of Lagos and I feel I can do it now
Thank you for this video
Thank you ma’am ❤️ Tech really is the future… so interested in learning UI/UX design. Still in my “researching” phase😂 Thank God I stumbled on this video😩
Thank you so much for watching ❤️
I’m in the same shoe 😊 RN & I’m definitely learning coding ui/ux

Very informative. Keep it up sis
Thank you ma for this inspiring video. I AM in my 400l in school, studying medical laboratory science. just enrolled in ui/ux design since asuu is currently on strike.. Will be starting class this Saturday.
Hi, Chime. How's your journey currently going?
I'm a 200l MLS student also, and I'm one month gone in UX design.
MLS can be a lot, but I'll try to couple this with school activities.
How's your UI/UX journey currently going?
Thanks for sharing your story , we definitely appreciate it
Thank you so much for watching
I’m looking to get into UX designing, this really helped a lot. Maths isn’t my thing at all so please I need to be sure about it 🙏🏻
Great work Sharon...

Hey sharon. I studied Estate management as well. Currently studying medicine. Recently found interest in ui/ux design
Wishing you all the best!
Thanks for sharing your experience, I found this helpful
Thanks a lot for watching
I resonate alot with what you just said.
I studied URP in FES UNILAG too and I am here trying to go into UX Design!!! hahahaha.....yaaaay I have found a senior sister and a mentor!!!
Thank u for this video... I'm currently learning webflow... I also design little with figma but I'm still confuse in the UX aspect.. thanks
I love you ❤️ thanks so much
This is so helpful! Thank you! I really could relate to you, as I'm also into arts and have used Adobe Illustration too for my arts before and have designed few logos back then. I just have a quick question Sharon, if you would start your UI/UX Design Journey, how would you plan it? Which things will you learn first, as well as the RUclips Channels, books, articles, etc., that you'd pick or you have used that made you more fruitful with your UI/UX Design journey?
thank you so much for this piece onyinyenwa 😍...please can you recommend one or two channels that you learnt from pleeeease🤲🤲
You're so driven and have such a thirst for knowledge. I wish I was more like you.
Thank you so much, you can definitely do it too!
That you can appreciate another's efforts is sheer awesomeness too.
I really like your videos. I definitely need to book a one-on-one with you.
Thank you so much
Hi!! Your videos/channel is so wonderful! Thank you for sharing. I'm wondering (roughly) how long it took to go the self study route before you got paid work?
So inspiring! Where you working full time estate management at the same time?
Hello Oyinye, I'm really inspired by your career path. Please what roadmap do you advise I follow? I want to become a UI/UX designer.
Very inspiring 👍🎊
Thank you so much ❤️
@@SharonOnyinye This was helpful thank you.
I want to go into UI/UX, but I don't have any design skill yet. I hop I'm on the right track.
DO I NEED TO LEARN PHOTOSHOP BEFORE VENTURING INTO UI/UX
What attracted me to uiux is the creativity to solve problems, creating something from a blank space to beautiful matching images and colors
Thank you
Hi, do you think its still good to use sketch? I really like to work on it but most courses or tutorials are for figma users.
Wow!
#interest #flare
Thanks!
@@SharonOnyinye welcome 🤗
You should make a video about your time management. It is really good.
Thank you so much
Being a while, how have you been? That's stunning to know you are from Nigeria 🇳🇬
Been doing great thank youuu
I also study estate management,this just gave me hope to come into user experience and interface design.. I have been dreaming of ideas for so long.
Rooting for you! You can do this
Hey! @Sharon Oyiniye... I scheduled a super peer interview with you today. I’m an architect student from Nigeria in Germany and I would really like to connect with you sometime when you’re available.

Can someone start product design without having any idea of graphic design?
Yes you can but you’ll need to learn some visual design principles
I know this is irrelevant but, how did you manage to speak perfect English?
Oh wow... Great
I'm just about starting out in this path, and finding you has been helpful.
God bless you
Wishing you all the best!
Your music volume is hight and voice is low.
