WHAT You get

Everything you need to grow

Hands-on UX Mentorship

UX Quest is an 8-week mentorship where junior designers practice real UX work, from defining problems to explaining decisions with confidence.

Structured UX process

You’ll work through a clear, repeatable UX framework - the kind hiring teams expect you to explain.

Real Challenges

You work on realistic product problems, similar to what designers face in actual teams.

Thinking First

We focus on how to think, decide, and explain UX decisions.

Direct Feedback

You get direct critique and guidance, not generic comments or automated feedback at our weekly 1-1 calls.

Why UX Quest

Most junior designers aren’t struggling because they lack talent.

They’re struggling because no one shows them how UX work actually happens in real teams.

Common problems

UX Quest exists to close this gap.

for who

Is UX Quest right for you?

Let’s find out if it’s good fit for you

UX Quest is a good fit if you:

Have basic UX knowledge but struggle to apply it in real projects
Want honest feedback on your thinking - not just your screens
Are ready to practice explaining your design decisions
Prefer depth and clarity over quick tips and shortcuts
Are willing to show your work, get critique, and iterate

UX Quest might not be the right fit if you:

Are looking for shortcuts, guarantees, or instant job offers
Prefer watching tutorials over doing the work
Want step-by-step answers without learning how to think
Are not ready to receive direct, constructive feedback
Are looking for a purely self-paced or passive course

Student Work

Real projects, real growth

These are early projects from the UX Quest beta round. More student work will be added as new cohorts finish.

“UX Quest helped me structure my thinking. I went from random design ideas to a solid, defensible UX process. My portfolio finally makes sense.”

Hey, I'm Merve Koók

Hey, I’m Merve — a senior UX designer working in product teams and mentoring junior designers alongside my full-time role.

Over the last few years, I noticed a pattern. Most junior designers aren’t struggling because they lack talent, they’re struggling because no one shows them how UX actually works in real teams. I review junior portfolios, give feedback, and interview designers regularly. And the same gaps come up again and again: unclear thinking, weak decision explanations, and projects that don’t reflect real-world constraints.

It’s a structured, hands-on mentorship where you work on realistic UX projects and get direct, honest feedback, the kind you’d receive from a senior designer on a real product team.

My role isn’t to teach theory or give answers. It’s to help you think clearly, explain your decisions with confidence, and build work you can actually stand behind.
