German native Miriam completed our UX Design Program<\/a> in 2019, and now works as a UX designer for an energy sourcing company.<\/p>\n

Hi Miriam! Could you give us a brief overview of your educational and professional background before enrolling in the CareerFoundry program?<\/h5>\n

I studied International Information Management, an interdisciplinary Magister course (similar to a German diploma course). Afterward, I was working as a project manager for eCommerce projects for approximately six years.<\/p>\n

What inspired you to make a career change into this field?<\/h5>\n

Project Management was a great introduction to working in the digital realm for me as it enabled me to get a thorough understanding of how software development projects work. But after six years, I felt it was time for a change. Amongst other things, my role had included requirements engineering and concept development for our clients. Those were tasks I always really enjoyed as they consolidated all the different perspectives: business goals, user needs, and development constraints. So I decided to deepen my knowledge in this area and learn more methods and approaches for designing smart solutions for users.<\/p>\n

What did you enjoy most about the course?<\/h5>\n

Definitely the mentoring by my superb tutor and mentor, as well as the project-based approach to learning. It was such a valuable experience to go through the design thinking process and see my concepts and designs evolve and improve over time. When I started the course, I did it with the intention of \u2018treating myself\u2019 to time for learning and growing new skills. I am super happy and grateful that my experience during the CareerFoundry course was exactly that.<\/p>\n

Tell us about your current job!<\/h5>\n

I was fortunate to have found a position in my new career path very quickly. I am now working as a UX designer for Sonnen. We produce innovative energy storage systems which empower our customers to enter the new era of decentralized, renewable energy production. I love what I do!<\/p>\n
