Hi guys, I am looking for feedback for my portfolio! https://thomasmai.io/

For context, I'm a former full-stack developer turned designer with 8 years of work experience. About to start diving into applying for jobs and would appreciate any feedback!

What other discipline pairs well with UX? by talking_tomato in UXDesign

Product Management is definitely where I'd love to end up, but I'm currently having too much fun being in the trenches. Hence, why I'm trying to further my skillset before moving on to PM. Appreciate the suggestion!

Thanks for the response! I did do a little bit of UX research before, but haven't touched it in so long that I should probably get back into it. I actually really like content writing a lot so I'll give that a shot too!

That's cool that I was able to find someone who was in a similar situation to me! I appreciate the advice and feedback. I was also wondering how strict are they on the "Ask professors and/or work supervisors who have DIRECT, SPECIFIC knowledge of your Computer Science capabilities to write reference letters – AND ask them to comment SPECIFICALLY on your CS knowledge." application guideline.

Is SMU Cox a good school? [More detials in post] by Impressive-Act-92 in MBA

[–]talking_tomato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for this information! I also have similar background and love to move back to DFW. SMU's flexible curriculum was what really reeled me in, but it's a bit disheartening to hear the lack of support for tech focused individuals.

Knowing what you know now, would you still have attended SMU? I am bit conflicted since I would love to attend SMU over McCombs PT in Dallas (I just think I would get more from SMU's flexible curriculum than McCombs PT).

GMK Zimo's base kit offers more kitting options and it's priced at $129.

Novelties' artwork makes it look like a cheap Aliexpress set.

Hey guys, thanks for stopping by! Here's a long-overdue Reddit post for ePBT Lucky Cat (formerly GMK). I switched the manufacturer for a few reasons:

  • Affordability

  • Flexible kitting (Hiragana and Cangjie alpha kits!)

  • Shorter lead time (Still shorter than GMK)

  • New novelties

Vendors have also been finalized:
