Toasting to following your Dreams – My Girlfriend's UX/UI design debut
23 points by kamy22 1183 days ago
I'm thrilled to share with you all a personal milestone in my life that I feel compelled to celebrate. My girlfriend, Julia, has been pursuing her dream of becoming a UX/UI designer for almost a year now while working in logistics, and today she has finally published her first project!

I can't express how proud I am of her for putting in the hard work to make her dream a reality. It's not easy to balance work and study (you know, sleepless nights to chase a dream), but she has done it with great determination.

Now that Julia has completed her first project, she's excited to take the next step in her journey and is actively searching for job opportunities in UX/UI design. If any of you have any leads or know of any open positions in this field, we would be immensely grateful for any advice or guidance you can offer.

I know some of you may think it's a small feat, but to us, it's a significant accomplishment worth toasting. As a community of innovators and dreamers, I hope we can all take inspiration from Julia's story and strive to follow our passions relentlessly.

Let's raise a glass to Julia and all the aspiring designers out there who are working hard to turn their dreams into reality. Cheers!

That's awesome! Just want to point out that the word "research" is spelled wrong in one of the headings. Right below the "About" section, the heading that starts with the word: "Competitors".

This looks like something I would use.

Good catch. She is working on fixing the typo. And… thank you for the nice words, they mean a lot to Julia.
Very nice! Congrats. Is that screenshotted website available publicly anywhere?
Ty! The website is available at https://tagpalette.com/ and it is still in development. Some described functionalities like “color psychology” will be available in a few weeks.
Congrats to Julia!
Celebrate the small wins. Upwards and onwards.
