Hello and welcome to the UserFlows podcast. I'll be your host Thomas Morrell, I am a father, husband, and designer. Thanks for joining me on this journey. I'm creating this podcast to be a place for us to discuss User Experience Design, getting started as a UX/Product Designer, and how someone would make the transition from their current field to the field of UX design. So I want UserFlows to be a place for those interested in UX design to learn more about the field and hopefully help someone find their first job in UX or help someone already working in the field to hone their skills a little bit more.
The reason I want to talk about this topic, in particular, is because this is exactly what I did. I transitioned from a career in Graphic Design/Visual Design which is fairly closely related. I've seen a number of other designers fail to make the switch or show interest in making the switch, but never quite get there. They may not have been sure where to start, intimidated, or any other list of reasons. So hopefully this podcast will give you some guidance on where to start, what's truly important to know and to learn, and what's going to advance your career the quickest.
