UX designer empowering women to take charge of their careers
I had a company in the the top 10 of the fortune 100 list reach out to me about moving to the middle of the country to design for them.
Remote work empowers employees to do their best, where they thrive.
Simply, the answer was hell no. I'll give up any kind of money to stay right where | belong.

My anxiety is up to a level 100/10
So I decided to take on some hobbies: fermentation and growing a kitchen garden

I took the rest of the week off to prevent burn out. So today:
I deep cleaned all fabric surfaces in my house (minus one rug).
Washed 2 weeks of laundry.
Started a ginger bug.
Vacuumed my floors.
Took out all the seeds I’ll be starting this early spring.
