I really enjoyed the way the course was presented. It made the whole learning experience very exciting.
Getting the experience to interview real people in-person and remotely was very interested. Connecting one-on-one with participants made me happy!
After getting experience with design and now research, I seem to resonate more with the user research side of things.
