My education was in both research and design work, but I always excelled more at research, so was hired as a UXR for a large tech company. After many years of doing only research work because the company I worked at was very UX mature, and had clear paths and roles for researchers and designers, I feel my design skills have gotten really rusty. I would like to be able to position myself as a product designer that is very proficient in both research and design in the future.
What is your best advice on how I can work on improving my design skills?
Are there courses I should take? Should I work on personal projects? Or is there another method you’d suggest?
Any insight into this would be immensely helpful. Thank you.
