WELCOME TO
PIVOT
HEY THERE! I'M DENISA, THE FOUNDER OF PIVOT.
My journey into UX wasn't a straight line. I didn't start my career with a traditional design education; instead, I came from Materials Engineering, where I learned to solve problems, think creatively, and build meaningful connections with users. It wasn't until I faced the challenge of breaking into UX that I realized how much my past experiences could contribute to this new field. However, I also realized there was a gap — there wasn't a clear roadmap for people like me who wanted to pivot into UX from another career.
That's where Pivot began. I built this platform to help others who are navigating a similar path. I understand what it's like to feel stuck and unsure about how to frame your past work in a way that makes sense to UX recruiters and hiring managers. I've been there. But I also know that every experience — whether directly in design or not — has value. It's about learning how to highlight that value and present yourself confidently.
Pivot was created to bridge the gap between your previous work and your future career in UX. It's for people who, like me, aretransitioning into UX from other fields and need a way to uncover and frame the experience that's already in their toolkit. Whether you're in a non-design role right now or you've had non-traditional design experiences, Pivot is here to help you connect the dots andtell a compelling story.
