Summary

I'm Brandon Powell, with 9 years of self-taught UI/UX Designer & Front-End Web Developer, Holistic Chef, and Aspiring Minimalist Rastafarian but just here to help and support. While I may not have formal work experience, I'm here to assist my fellow technical developers. It Builds Success Skills

I ask because our minds move fast, and we're not perfect; sometimes, I forget:

  1. Start with Gratitude - What are you grateful for today?
  2. Invocation of Guidance - What do you need to pray for?
  3. Centering Prayer - Just center your heart for prayer.
  4. Start Session - Start talking with the Student.
  5. Reflective Pause - Ask the student to give feedback & what have they learned.
  6. Closing Prayer- Finish the session with the end Prayer.

Remember to tailor these points to your specific context and the nature of the teaching session. If you have any specific themes or elements you'd like to include, feel free to provide more details for further customization.

Before seeking knowledge, ensure that your needs are purposeful and focused on what you genuinely aim to learn. Please refrain from approaching developers solely to pick their brains. If you intend to learn about another person's process or expertise, you are welcome here. However, if your purpose is merely to extract information without genuine intent, kindly refrain from wasting time.

Thing to know before asking for help or teaching or learning:

  • We have AI Tools for Intelligence.
  • We course that is free online.

The need and want of a teacher is understanding another person's perspective on life to see, hear, and feel how they do things in their process and directions.

My focus is on enhancing my debugging and problem-solving skills. Are you seeking a mentor to help with a Dev Project so you can learn faster? That's me. Let's come together, build, create, and launch together.

Teachers who can motivate and push you to your limits, it's challenging to work on projects alone. I've experienced that in the second phase of this journey of building a business. You are always cooking up something. A person who loves to cook.

What I can help you with:

  • UX Design - Know your users' needs and why they do what they do. When they understand your idea or product design, what they do. How do they click? The reasons why users do not click on your product or why they do not buy your product or understanding the needs of the users will help us design better products.

  • Sketch & Wireframe - Before beginning the design process, plan your ideas and sketch out your sketches to figure out what you want before you move forward with the design stage or before you talk with the users.

  • UI Design - Understand how to create high-quality website design. Bring your UI design to a functioning website and learn how to design for the users, not for yourself but make sure your design has a meaningful message that customers and team will like and enjoy your experiences.

  • Long-Term Partner - I want to clarify that we are not talking about long-term romantic partners, but long-term business partners. Sometimes we tend to focus too much on short-term success that we overlook long-term success and how to build long-term growth in product development, website design, food innovation, food management or just becoming a Chef content creator name a few things that will push you.

  • Web Hosting - Don't rush to host your website because someone said commercial hosting providers are better for your buck. Take your time, do your research, or find someone who can help you find the right providers that can meet your needs and save you money for long-term success in your business.

  • Sprint Workshop - We will begin a full teachable design sprint workshop in Miro to lay the groundwork for the website. In the next workshop, we will discuss the building of products within the food industry, product development, and managing the kitchen.

Anything else:

If I did not mention something you need help with, we can still have a chat, so just drop me a message, and we will see what can be done.
