Vivi Shin has such a bright future ahead of her. She is one of the most impressive product thinkers I’ve ever encountered for someone so early in their design journey.

During our first chats and interviews I was astounded by the way she thinks about product and user behavior and designing solutions accordingly.

Vivi is also one of the most well loved across the team and diligent designers I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. Her strong work ethic paired with a constant focus on growing her skillset, practice and process makes her an undoubted asset to any team.

Firstly, I want to express my gratitude for having such an inspiring mentor like her. Since I decided to pursue a new career, I had many questions and felt confused.

Despite searching and reaching out to others and communities for help, I felt like something was missing. I was looking for a mentor who had already walked the path that I wanted to take, and I found her on YouTube by chance. After watching her interview, I knew that she was the exact person I was looking for. I read all the articles she wrote on Branch and was able to gain more clarity on my new journey.

Through having a coffee chat with her, I was able to receive the answers that I was looking for. I think it is really important to have a mentor when you start a new journey, otherwise, it may take too much time to arrive at the destination or it may be easy to get lost along the way. Thanks to having her as my mentor, I feel more confident to start this new journey.

Thank you for sharing insights on your career journey and for the positive influence you've had on me. I would appreciate more opportunities to talk with you and receive further guidance.

You are the best mentor ever!!!

Today has been an incredibly enjoyable and inspiring day! Thanks to the exceptional product design mentoring session, I can now plan my future with optimism and lay the foundation for my journey as a product designer. Despite my portfolio being in its early stages, the mentor tailored their advice to my specific situation and shared invaluable insights only a seasoned professional would know.

Initially, I hesitated to book the session due to the cost, but looking back, it feels like an absolute bargain. I am truly grateful for this amazing experience, and it has filled me with enthusiasm and excitement for my future in product design!

Vivi is the most knowledgeable and empathetic mentor that I’ve ever met. She provided me with practical insights and guidance based on her experiences, which helped me a lot to land a Product Designer role.

After the mentorship service, I was able to get three offers as a freelancer, full-timer and part-timer. She is like my life-saver.

I had been struggling a lot but I’m now so excited to continue developing my career as a Product Designer. I highly recommend the mentorship service with her. You wouldn’t regret it.

Vivi brought her curiosity, intuition and eagerness to learn which saw her produce a high quality of work that considered both customer and business.

She always took the time to understand the problems that were needing to be solved which informed how she creatively crafted experiences and product.

Anyone who has the opportunity to work with Vivi will be extremely fortunate to collaborate and learn from her ability to think deeply, yet solve creatively with impact.
