I’ve had the privilege of mentoring and coaching numerous talented individuals, within companies and at institutions like Academy Xi and General Assembly. Helping them transition into Product Design roles.
Julio mentored me during a recent UX/UI design course in Sydney. Julio is an exceptional educator with deep expertise in the fields of UX/UI and Product Design. Julio’s passion for design is infectious and he creates an engaging and inspirational learning space. He is able to seamlessly intertwine theory and practice, sharing many valuable real-world insights along the way. I’m immensely grateful for the knowledge and inspiration Julio shared, it played no small part in my successful transition into a Product Design role that I love.
Julio’s coaching provided me both a broad career vision and immediate, actionable insights for my transition from brand and marketing design to product design. His coaching was practical, grounded in effective product principles and backed up by his ability to listen and see my strengths and weaknesses as a designer. Absolutely recommend Julio
Julio was a terrific mentor, he clearly had a wealth of knowledge and experience in UX methods & UI design. His guidance helped provide me with a better understanding of Human Centred Design and how powerful translating research into a professional end product can be.
