What makes it work
A breakdown of the choices that make this portfolio stand out.
A named, packaged framework for the portfolio itself
Rather than just showing her own case studies, the site teaches a specific UX portfolio framework that others use to get hired at Apple and IBM.
Years of experience stated as a specific number
Leading with 22 years of experience rather than 'seasoned professional' gives visitors an immediate, verifiable anchor for seniority.
Coaching outcomes cited by company name
Naming that clients have landed roles at American Express, Accenture, and IBM converts an abstract coaching claim into checkable outcomes.
What UX Designers can take from this
Specific, actionable tips to apply to your own portfolio — no generic advice.
State your years of experience as a specific number, not an adjective.
If you coach or mentor others, cite the specific companies your clients land at.
Package a skill you've mastered into a teachable framework.
