Thanks for the informative video! I’m also curious about your career journey as UX researcher. Most of people who currently work in this field recommend to get related degree and get internship opportunities from there. I’m so confused if that is the only option I have ..

Peep the "it depends" sticker :DDD great vid Qian!!!
another reason to use slides: your website might GO DOWN during a live preso! can't depend on their servers!

I needed a refresh on the iconic sticker :> so thank you! And a great point that the site may go down---what a nightmare!
