Istanbul
I have worked as a stay-at-home parent for 10 years, and I'm 29. After my children starting school, I decided to move into UX design, and I have completed an online certificate. What I'm missing is someone who has walked this path: feedback on my resume and portfolio, a realistic view of the job market in Istanbul, and a sounding board when things feel overwhelming. I'm hoping for one 45-minute video call a month for four months, plus the occasional email question. I'll bring specific questions and I won't waste your time. All I can offer back is my thanks, and I'll mentor someone else once I'm settled. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    Hope you get there. After 22 years in engineering I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Thinking of Istanbul.
