My Sis❤️. This was really inspiring and I'm happy you took the time to drop this amazing video. Is there a professional email one can reach you on? Chukwudi Anigwe from Nigeria 🇳🇬
I never comment on RUclips posts, but I just want to thank you for giving such a very explicit and honest walk-through of how to come into UX with no experience. You got down to the nitty gritty details and actually all the way at the beginning. Amazing job!!
From someone who has been confused her whole life, I think I have found my true calling thanks to you! This video was SO informative and so interesting.
Thanks for some actual practical advice. Some people out here really be saying "just go out and take a 10k bootcamp" or "you just go back to school" like people have the money for it. Good websites you provided as well!
I rarely leave a comment (maybe 2x in all the years I’ve been on YT). But just want to encourage you to keep creating content. This is great and inspiring. #RepresentationMatters
Today marks the beginning of the journey of my UI/UX career and this is first video I stumbled across. This video has proved to be so helpful and insightful as well. Thank you so much for the detailed analysis and the fundamental knowledge explained in this video.
My first lesson on UI/UX design start today with this video and it's perfectly awesome, nice to meet you ma'am. RUclips Algorithm did well for me. Looking forward to more of these piece
i dont really comment but THIS is the type of video that i have been SEARCHING for and i cant express how happy that this came across my feed. thank you for this !
I'm a nurse and been wanting to work in tech for a while and you've made me really interested in visual design! Subscribed, and I am more motivated to begin this journey :)
Me 3 … or 4?! I’m in my mid-50’s and in grad school currently taking a UX/Human Factors class…. That said, Sharon’s tips are fabulously specific and on point! So encouraged and thankful for her and all of you.
I just saw this video now. Trust me it was indeed helpful. I wanna say a big thank you. I started once and gave up on my passion for it. Thank you soo much, i feel encouraged
Thank you! I became a Software Developer because I was following the money but I realized I much prefer working with design. This is my starting point for learning how to become a UI/UX Designer.
This is a really creative field, as a programmer I appreciate people like you taking something seemingly obvious seriously and coming up with carefully crafted design for us to work with.
Thank you soooo much for demystifying the process of becoming a UX designer AND providing specific tool links and examples of steps to take!!!! I am trying to change careers at 56yr and need this info! I’m now your devoted follower 🙏❤️
I'm just starting out in UX and throughout my studies I've seen examples of teams working and have yet to see a black woman in any of them! Thank you for making this video, it's reassuring to see other black women in the field 💖
Holy shit, did you send this video down from heaven?? This is literally what I needed so bad, I just graduated industrial design and wanted to change to a UI/UX designer, and I'm just realizing it's gonna be so much easier than I thought! I thought I had to study 2 more years to get a diploma or something. Thank you SOO much.
I'm two years to late but this has given me so much more confidence to pursue UX. Thank you for such an encouraging video your voice was so lovely to listen to as well.♥🇿🇦
This video was super helpful, I currently work as a UI/frontend developer, but recently discovered this field of UI/UX, started learning a couple of things myself..and I've been loving this. Probably by next year I should land a job in this field 🙈
Hi Sindhu. I'm also working as UI/front-end developer, I like to start UI/UX career. Could you share couple of things where you are start learning or learning path?
As a Human interaction Designer that just dropped out of my last year of university due to the world situation I am really looking forward to doing my own projects and publishing them to add to my portfolio
it's funny how I'm coming across this after two years.hello sharon,Thank you for this video. it has given me an introductory insight on ui/ux. I'm about to take a course on it. you've helped a life. Thank you.
Your walk-through speech is amazing...... I am trying ui/ux design for the first time and I came across your video, I feel confident now. Thank you Onye💕
I was thinking the same thing, lol! Super relaxing!! This video was incredibly helpful. I've been wanting to enroll in General Assembly's program but don't have 3K right now. 😫😫😫 So I really appreciate the resources provided here. They inspire me to begin right now.
Thank you so much for this video. I'm currently an undergraduate in one of the universities in Nigeria (FUTO precisely) who is currently on her 6 months IT. I was really confused thinking about the skill I needed to learn even though I had always admired UI/UX. This video gave me clarity, morale and the urge to start. I love the way you explained everything. For the first time in a long while, I bought something on impulse (your ebook) lol I'm definitely sticking to your channel. Thank you, Onyinye.
Barely ten minutes into my first video on your channel and I feel so at peace like I’m having a chat with a friend, your aura is so calming, I hope to learn a lot from you ❤️
Thank you so much for covering every tiny basic for beginners. The video is so worth watching and definitely infused positivity & motivation for beginners. Your way of explaining is very soothing, calm, and positive. Thanks again for the links!
Welldone my sister Sharon. I’m so glad you put this inspiring stuffs together. I’ve been a graphic designer in the past before crossing into IT. I now have decided to cross back into design UI. From my background, I don’t think I’m gonna find things difficult growing into this position. Thanks a bunch Sharon. Adeoye
This was very helpful for me. I graduated with a Graphic Design Degree in 2016 but got pregnant soon after and took a CSR job which I have been at for over 5 years now. I'm finally in a place where I can start working on the career I want. Thank you for this video it has given me much needed inspiration and I feel that I am finally on the right path.
This is a really awesome video. I'm a self taught graphic designer with about 3 years of experience and I'm looking to make a pivot into UI/UX Design. Thanks for sharing
I'm a digital designer, have been for some time now! Actually love it and we're definitely rare in the field. My degrees are in design, but God naturally blessed me with the creative skill set!!
Thank you for being supportive and encouraging. It’s so important for people who are transitioning to other fields that are totally different. What you suggest and offer are truly important and I can’t wait to practice more.
A black, female African in UX design? Whew chile, if this isn't a sign from above I don't know what is. Thank you so much for this calming, succinct and well detailed intro into this fascinating field, Sharon! 😌
It’s because of your locs, soft spoken voice, and passionate energy coming through the screen and ability to teach us about the field. That’s why you got a like and new subscriber instantly! 💜
I want to learn UI UX Design, and I came here on YT and just came across your Channel. It's gives me joy that this is a Sister, not only a sister but An Igbo sister, ONYINYE. ❤ I'm glad you're doing this. I love what you do. I'm subscribing. And, I will spend more time on this Channel, digesting what you share. Girl power. Thank you for the detailing. ❤❤ Will definitely be reaching out.
This is so detailed... Had opportunities to learn UI/UX DESIGNING, I don't have a laptop yet... But, would really love to start this journey soon. Thanks for the tips and experience.
I’m a student getting my bs in digital multimedia design. I have a background in graphic design and am currently learning html/css and figma. Id love to hear more about finding jobs after you acquire these skills.
I've been seeing random info about UX design so much lately, and then I came across this vid.. it may be a sign. every time I tried looking into it on my own though it seemed really intimidating and very tech-y. I have a fashion & graphic design background, so I wasn't sure if this was a route I could go down, but you explain everything SO well, & makes the whole field seem less scary haha. thank you 🙏🏾!
Me too. Google is offering a full beginners certificate training that will be considered industry recognition. They are offering it to 100,000 women and minorities. I was like I def need to look into this. Do you want the link?
@SleepyCentral www.google.com/amp/s/www.forbes.com/sites/zackfriedman/2020/07/14/google-scholarships-online-certificates/amp/ If the link doesn’t work. Try to google “sign up for google 100k scholarship faq” or RUclips “google scholarship 100k”. It’s not open yet to sign up for. I think it’s a waiting list or something. They just drop this news in July for during corona.
I’m a UX grad student with an art and fashion background. I totally was intimidated at first, but very excited when I learned more about it. In my views though, design is design. We are all solving various problems with various materials and tools whether fashion, visual, architects, industrial designers, etc! User experience is just one way way to ask questions and problems and form solutions with a strong user focus. With that in mind, I think leveraging your various experiences could be your strength! Good luck on your journey!
This video is so useful. I have started copying to learn, feeling a bit like I was "cheating" or "not learning properly", but I feel so relieved to hear you advise people to do just that. I am trying to go from psychology to UX, trying to teach myself UI and Figma as well as UX. Thanks for giving such concrete, great advice.
This was so motivational - you somehow made everything sound less daunting than it actually is (i’m talking about the amount of stuff you actually have to learn). Really great video and awesome tips, especially about networking and collaborating. Thank u ❤️
Your personality is so so pleasing. You're so beautiful, so knowledgeable, so sweet at talking. You exude such an infectious vibrancy. Thanks so much for this insightful video. I'm starting a paid introductory course tomorrow. The video is so well done, really professional!
I've been interested in UI/UX design but never knew how to go about it. Thanks for the insight. This video has done a lot for me already. I'm in love with your voice too🥰
I am at crossroads because I don’t have any design history at all, except for basic Canva designs I do for my business page . This video right here is such an inspiration and I am definitely giving it a shot ❤
Thanks for being real, pure and down to earth. You are sure inspiring and assuring. Thanks for making this simple and clear. You surely demystify the UIUX. I surely learnt a lot from this and taking lots of insights from your tips. I followed you right away after few seconds of watching this. No regret till the end.
Thank you for this! I actually do not come from a design backgrounder, I work in healthcare benefits administration but I'm interested in a possible career change. I love design and being creative and I need it in my life lol. This may be it!
I am super excited to come your way via this content. I am motivated to learn this Tech skill and you have done justice already to this course . I would like to immerse myself in mentorship channels to learn this skill , pls grant me the opportunity to develop and build my capacity through this course. Thanks to all your efforts this far.
I am so glad I came across your video. I have almost 15 years of experience in healthcare and had done some graphic design in college in the UK so not university level. But was so put off by how expensive it is to go to uni. But your video and simple steps has given me courage to do break into this by myself. Thank you so much and I am now a new subscriber of your channel 😊 . You will definitely hear from me soon to give me feedback on my work.
On my experience on the field and may other fields... You don't need to have a degree on any visual, programming, designing, etc to be a professional on the field with high paying salaries. I only finish high school and I am a Producer, Art Director, UI, UX designer, Artificial Intelligence Designer, Broadcast Motion Graphics Designer and Product Designer. My salary always being higher then graduated and folks with PHD on the field. When I try to hire people on my field I always ask for a DEMO REEL and if the person know how to draw. If they don't have both, I would never hire that person. Now, there are some areas like video editor but even that most companies now requires you to know AE, AI and Photoshop with design skills in place... so again, it goes how much you know how to design and create motion graphics today. If you don't have no of what I said, find a field that you are good at it. Time is priceless!
Thank you for that, I too have a high school diploma with some college. I was debating doing what I truly love versus going back to college and wasting money that I don’t have.
Daeguma I totally agree. I feel that the pandemic has made people realize that we have to spend our time wisely even when choosing something as simple as a career. I’m pursuing an IT degree at the moment, but I have realized overtime my passion for HCI is real! So what’s the point of wasting money at a university? HCI or UX design is most definitely the future, and as she said in the video they’re already making 90k so it’s a no brainer for me🤷🏾♀️
I have a super business idea, but don't have money to fund the ui, UX designer/ website/ app developer. Now I am here... I'm going to painfully take out time to learn all these to grow my idea...
I can’t believe all this information is free. You are a great communicator and gave more helpful guidance than I could ask for. Thanks for the awesome video and resources!
Thank you so much for this video! You are the first youtuber I've found that's provided so many helpful resources. I am new to UI/UX design and I am glad I found your channel
This was incredibly helpful! I’ve been thinking about making the transition from apparel design and this video has given me new hope that it’s the right move for me 🖤
This is such a helpful and practical video on how to get started! I feel comforted that you mentioned we do not need previous experience with design but we do need to start haha. Thank you for the encouragement and resources to get into this UI/UX sphere. You inspire a humble aura of constant self-improvement, positivity and openness to experience, I love that! Have a wonderful day :)
I know this is like 2 years after you made this video but I’m just getting to see it , I’m a web designer / developer from Nigeria 🇳🇬with 2 years experience in the field and I also want to become a UI/UX designer. This was really helpful Thanks.
Lovely video, felt so genuine and practical at the same time :) I'm currently a graphic designer for a museum but would like to transition to UI/UX as it feels more fast-paced, timely, and exciting. Just subscribed to your channel, can't wait for more content
Just found your channel and as a BA graduate in art (prior design experience) I’m really leaning towards learning this because finding a job in my area is incredibly difficult right now! This gets me excited and hopeful to find something new! Subbed 👨🏻💻
I'm looking to starting ui/ux and I just stumbled on your video. Thank you. Was just calm to watch and listen to you all through. I will start with these steps

Nigerians right?
This is her first RUclips video, guys. And she did it this well. Damn.
I never comment on RUclips posts, but I just want to thank you for giving such a very explicit and honest walk-through of how to come into UX with no experience. You got down to the nitty gritty details and actually all the way at the beginning. Amazing job!!
So happy to hear this, thank you so much for taking the time
Did y'all really notice how sweet her voice sounds
Haha thank you
I would really love it if you could mentor me...When I would be starting out journey in the next 3 months
Heyy...whats your IG handle?

@@maryotunba4271 I am tho, girl..
From someone who has been confused her whole life, I think I have found my true calling thanks to you! This video was SO informative and so interesting.
i feel the same!
P ❤️🙈📱😭
I am 38 and been lost my whole life!
You are not alone! I've gone from idea to idea, but I feel like this is *it*
Dude that’s me lol you said in perfectly I’m so confused lol
My graphic teacher always said "There's no such thing as a original idea we're all piggy backing off someone someway🤣😂"
This is mostly true haha
That is where innovation comes in. 😀😀😀
So true! I’m an event designer and it’s very very true!! We all get inspiration from somewhere
Can you please train me ?
Thanks for some actual practical advice. Some people out here really be saying "just go out and take a 10k bootcamp" or "you just go back to school" like people have the money for it. Good websites you provided as well!
I'm definitely needing these insights! I'm starting from level negative 1000.
ruclips.net/video/qOIPKg_wdSc/видео.html
hahaha how has it been after 3 weeks?
Same. After years as working as a software developer and scrum master, I feel like a product designer is my true calling.
I'd suggest first to do nothing, so it'd multiply your -100000 by 0. That's a huge lead!!
@@jayfay786 I hope you enjoy the ux/ui path
1.introducery course
2.start designing
3.share designs
4.Take projects

You are so calm and confident! None of the unnatural over-excitement some RUclipsrs portray.
Welldone 😊
Agreed! I found this video so easy to watch & follow. You are a natural! Thank you!
omg, YES!
Can't stand the overly animated cartoonish , wanna be TedTalks some of these RUclipsrs provide.
This lady is AMAZING!
Absolutely.
Calm voice and all
You have a very engaging manner: calm, assured and knowledgeable. I have to reinvent myself, so I'm looking at UX/UI. Subscribed!
Thank you so much ❤️
Good luck with reinventing yourself! It takes a lot of courage, time and effort but it is worth it!
I’m doing the same at 52. Good luck!
I could say the same 😊
@@Onward1969 hows your progress so far?
You are not just a designer, you’re a good teacher. Look how u made it so easy for me. I feel so lucky to have bumped into this and I won’t stop !
So glad to hear this, rooting for you ❤️

This is so detailed... Had opportunities to learn UI/UX DESIGNING, I don't have a laptop yet... But, would really love to start this journey soon. Thanks for the tips and experience.
I’m a student getting my bs in digital multimedia design. I have a background in graphic design and am currently learning html/css and figma. Id love to hear more about finding jobs after you acquire these skills.
I've been seeing random info about UX design so much lately, and then I came across this vid.. it may be a sign. every time I tried looking into it on my own though it seemed really intimidating and very tech-y. I have a fashion & graphic design background, so I wasn't sure if this was a route I could go down, but you explain everything SO well, & makes the whole field seem less scary haha. thank you 🙏🏾!
Me too. Google is offering a full beginners certificate training that will be considered industry recognition. They are offering it to 100,000 women and minorities. I was like I def need to look into this. Do you want the link?
Kerena Only I do please ! This would be very helpful at the moment🙏🏾😩

If the link doesn’t work. Try to google “sign up for google 100k scholarship faq” or RUclips “google scholarship 100k”. It’s not open yet to sign up for. I think it’s a waiting list or something. They just drop this news in July for during corona.
I’m a UX grad student with an art and fashion background. I totally was intimidated at first, but very excited when I learned more about it. In my views though, design is design. We are all solving various problems with various materials and tools whether fashion, visual, architects, industrial designers, etc! User experience is just one way way to ask questions and problems and form solutions with a strong user focus. With that in mind, I think leveraging your various experiences could be your strength! Good luck on your journey!
you look it it once or on facebook, google and other spying sobs will flood you with it. fb follows you off line.
Onye Igbo.... So proud of you 🔥🔥😩😩🔥
YOURE TOO CUTE AND INFORMATIVE! I appreciate you sooooo much
This video is so useful. I have started copying to learn, feeling a bit like I was "cheating" or "not learning properly", but I feel so relieved to hear you advise people to do just that. I am trying to go from psychology to UX, trying to teach myself UI and Figma as well as UX. Thanks for giving such concrete, great advice.
Glad to hear this! well done
This was so motivational - you somehow made everything sound less daunting than it actually is (i’m talking about the amount of stuff you actually have to learn). Really great video and awesome tips, especially about networking and collaborating. Thank u ❤️
Thanks for watching and for the kind words ❤️
Your personality is so so pleasing. You're so beautiful, so knowledgeable, so sweet at talking. You exude such an infectious vibrancy.
Thanks so much for this insightful video. I'm starting a paid introductory course tomorrow.
The video is so well done, really professional!
Thank you so much!
I've been interested in UI/UX design but never knew how to go about it. Thanks for the insight. This video has done a lot for me already.
I'm in love with your voice too🥰
Incredibly informative! I love how detailed and encouraging this video is. Also, your voice is very soothing.Thank you!
I am at crossroads because I don’t have any design history at all, except for basic Canva designs I do for my business page . This video right here is such an inspiration and I am definitely giving it a shot ❤
Thanks for being real, pure and down to earth. You are sure inspiring and assuring.
Thanks for making this simple and clear. You surely demystify the UIUX.
I surely learnt a lot from this and taking lots of insights from your tips.
I followed you right away after few seconds of watching this. No regret till the end.
Thank you so much! Wishing you all the best
Thank you for this! I actually do not come from a design backgrounder, I work in healthcare benefits administration but I'm interested in a possible career change. I love design and being creative and I need it in my life lol. This may be it!
so glad this was helpful to you!
How is it after 1 year? My job profile is public administration oriented and I'm thinking of making a switch too lol.
I am super excited to come your way via this content.
I am motivated to learn this Tech skill and you have done justice already to this course .
I would like to immerse myself in mentorship channels to learn this skill , pls grant me the opportunity to develop and build my capacity through this course.
Thanks to all your efforts this far.
Thank you for your video! i am starting from nothing but a background in Hospitality and Art from back in High School. This is Motivation!
I am so glad I came across your video. I have almost 15 years of experience in healthcare and had done some graphic design in college in the UK so not university level. But was so put off by how expensive it is to go to uni. But your video and simple steps has given me courage to do break into this by myself. Thank you so much and I am now a new subscriber of your channel 😊 . You will definitely hear from me soon to give me feedback on my work.
On my experience on the field and may other fields... You don't need to have a degree on any visual, programming, designing, etc to be a professional on the field with high paying salaries. I only finish high school and I am a Producer, Art Director, UI, UX designer, Artificial Intelligence Designer, Broadcast Motion Graphics Designer and Product Designer. My salary always being higher then graduated and folks with PHD on the field. When I try to hire people on my field I always ask for a DEMO REEL and if the person know how to draw. If they don't have both, I would never hire that person. Now, there are some areas like video editor but even that most companies now requires you to know AE, AI and Photoshop with design skills in place... so again, it goes how much you know how to design and create motion graphics today. If you don't have no of what I said, find a field that you are good at it. Time is priceless!
Thank you for that, I too have a high school diploma with some college. I was debating doing what I truly love versus going back to college and wasting money that I don’t have.
@InteractiveDNA How did you learn so many things on your own ?? That's really impressive
Daeguma I totally agree. I feel that the pandemic has made people realize that we have to spend our time wisely even when choosing something as simple as a career. I’m pursuing an IT degree at the moment, but I have realized overtime my passion for HCI is real! So what’s the point of wasting money at a university? HCI or UX design is most definitely the future, and as she said in the video they’re already making 90k so it’s a no brainer for me🤷🏾♀️
Can you please clarify what it means when you say “how to draw”??
I have a super business idea, but don't have money to fund the ui, UX designer/ website/ app developer.
Now I am here... I'm going to painfully take out time to learn all these to grow my idea...
I can’t believe all this information is free. You are a great communicator and gave more helpful guidance than I could ask for. Thanks for the awesome video and resources!
Thanks so much for watching
My actual first video in search of what UX/UI is, on youtube.....Thank you
Thank you so much for this video! You are the first youtuber I've found that's provided so many helpful resources. I am new to UI/UX design and I am glad I found your channel
You're so beautiful! lately I have been looking for information about ux/ui design so I'll be checking your channel closely. Always keep uploading!💞
Omg thank you so much for your kind words ❤️
I’ll definitely keep uploading, thanks again!
This was incredibly helpful! I’ve been thinking about making the transition from apparel design and this video has given me new hope that it’s the right move for me 🖤
Hi... me too! 10 years in apparel but ready for a change.
Looking for an accountability partner? 👀 👀 🙋🏾♀️
Glad it was helpful!
@@michellerichards3136 I am if youre still looking
This is such a helpful and practical video on how to get started! I feel comforted that you mentioned we do not need previous experience with design but we do need to start haha. Thank you for the encouragement and resources to get into this UI/UX sphere. You inspire a humble aura of constant self-improvement, positivity and openness to experience, I love that! Have a wonderful day :)
So glad to hear this! Thank you so much for your kind words
Thats a great vid for a RUclips debut. Continue being yourself and bring more mature content
I know this is like 2 years after you made this video but I’m just getting to see it , I’m a web designer / developer from Nigeria 🇳🇬with 2 years experience in the field and I also want to become a UI/UX designer. This was really helpful Thanks.
Lovely video, felt so genuine and practical at the same time :) I'm currently a graphic designer for a museum but would like to transition to UI/UX as it feels more fast-paced, timely, and exciting. Just subscribed to your channel, can't wait for more content
So glad to hear this! Thank you so much
Please can we chat more.. I want to learn from you on graphic design more
Just found your channel and as a BA graduate in art (prior design experience) I’m really leaning towards learning this because finding a job in my area is incredibly difficult right now! This gets me excited and hopeful to find something new! Subbed 👨🏻💻
I really appreciate this as someone who doesn’t have a whole lot of skill or knowledge yet, this is very useful! I will definitely be back for more!!
Really glad to hear this!
I'm looking to starting ui/ux and I just stumbled on your video. Thank you. Was just calm to watch and listen to you all through. I will start with these steps
Thank you so much and wishing you all the best
@@SharonOnyinye Thank you ❤
I’ve been watching UX design videos all morning, this has been the most inspiring! I can feel your kindness❤️
