Silicon Valley UX Design Career Coach at Salesforce, Yahoo!, Zenefits, Upwork, Exasol, Kandji, & Design agencies
I’m pausing my career coaching practice indefinitely so that I can focus on a new project.
--* Hello, I’m a UX Design Career Coach!
I’ve spent the past two decades in the UX industry, working at well-known companies like Salesforce, Yahoo!, and Zenefits, as well as a variety of startups and design agencies. My journey in Silicon Valley has been filled with challenges, growth, and meaningful lessons that continue to shape how I coach today.
My specialty is helping designers land job offers and build thriving careers—through honest feedback, clear steps and actionable guidance. To me, nothing is more rewarding than watching designers’ careers take off, especially in times of rapid change and challenge.
My Promise to You: • Pay-As-You-Go Flexibility — no long-term commitment required • Personalized Coaching — tailored to your pace and goals • Focused, Action-Oriented Feedback — clear steps you can apply right away • Broad Expertise — guidance across a wide range of coaching topics
I'm looking forward to supporting you!
Your Silicon Valley UX Design Career Coach, Jennifer Yoon https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniferjyyoon/
“Jennifer gave me very useful and actionable feedback on both my UX portfolio and LinkedIn profile, and helped me see where I could improve the way I present my experience and projects. I really appreciated how clear, supportive, and practical her advice was. I’d definitely recommend Jennifer to other UI/UX designers looking for portfolio and career guidance.”
“Jennifer is an amazing mentor. Her presence is so positive, and her feedback is rooted in research and understanding. She takes time to get to know you first, then cares about your goals by providing information and guiding you in the right direction. I've always found the advice to be non-generic but very personal.”
“Jennifer provided general UX job search guidance and followed up with a detailed email containing specific resources that were more actionable than our initial conversation. Her list of job platforms beyond LinkedIn and advice on strategic application approaches were particularly useful. As a career coach with a design background, she was most helpful on tactical job search strategy.”
