Your book is great! I ordered and read it and there’s some pure gold in it! I work with clients who are feeling stuck in their UX career but many of them just need to change their job before they are ready to work with, so I recommend your book to them!

Yay!!! Thank you John! You literally explained auto layout today so effortlessly. I understand it more now than ever before. I’m considering taking your course, so I can take my Figma skills up a notch."
