Hey all!! Thank you thank you thank you for submitting your questions through Linkedin and IG!!
I do apologize that I weren't able to get to all the questions but I did pick out questions that got asked most frequently here.

I have been a huge fan of this channel for the last few years and I continue to revisit videos often! You are so grounding and intelligent Aona! Thank you so much for all the work you put into sharing this information with the community
10k 🎉 Congratulations Aona! I’ve definitely learned so much from your channel. Thank you for being a great inspiration and looking forward to seeing more of these superb videos!
Plant parent here as well! We need to see more plants, please! :)
I want to watch your video on how to be a good plant parent 🥺 I would watch anything you put together tbh
Hahaha aww thank you!! And I reeeaally want to make one about plants 🌱
Yay 10k! Amazing ! So jealous of your plants , mine always die lol.
Can’t wait to hear more about your year as a youtuber in the ux field. I just hit a month today and would love to hear your thoughts, things that surprised you, and challenges. Thanks for the video 💕
Aw congrats on one month!!! And you already have many videos up (so productive)! Im in the process of editing that video so should come out in a couple of weeks :)
congrats on 10k! I just got my first UXR job thanks to your videos :)
Congrats!!! 🎉🎉🎉 You’re great and thanks so much for your videos! 💝
Congratulations Aona!! 🎉Thanks for always sharing your wisdom and advice☺️❤️ I love watching your videos!!
Congratulations Aona! Fantastic channel and great quality content!
Congratulations Aona. You def deserve this. You taught a lot to me personally. I am super excited to find you.
Congrats on the 10k!!! I always look forward to your videos. It's pretty cool you're also into rare tropical plants as well! How did you acclimate your Anthuriums? I have a ton sitting in jars and display cabinets to keep the humidity high.
10k!! Congrats Aona 🎉 I always love watching your videos, thanks for sharing great UXR content. Greetings from Kosovo:)
Hiiii old friend! ☺️
Congrats!! Wonderful news!!!
🚀 to the moon!! Congratz, Aona!!
Congrats, Aona! Thanks a lot for your videos! Very informative and also structured so well, which makes it easy to follow. I guess it's also your personality that helps a lot!
I've seen the video on your professional journey to UXR, but still curious to know: after you got there, what do you actually like about being a UX researcher? Why do you keep going in this role?
Would be happy to know if you can share your thoughts
P.S. Your cats and plants are adorable! It looks like you've created a small perfectly fitted universe around you that suits you so well
Congrats Aona!! Btw, i love your short hairstyle, it suits u a lot. Oh and i actually recognize in other video that you have cats, maybe one day you can make videos about them and share some activities with them 🐱😸 Cheers!
Yesss!! Cat videos are super fun to make ❤️
They asked all the questions I wanted to learn answers of! #whyareyousocool
Congrats!! will continue to support u through TH-cam & b 站! Thank you so much for producing those amazing videos~ Should relevant research experience be focusing on users and products? Can I also write psychology independent research projects into my CV as a relevant experience?
Yes and yes to your questions! And thank you!
Hi Aona, I have around 4 years of experience as a full-stack web developer. But now fed up with development and want to switch to UX design. My question is will I be again considered a fresher or my experience will be counted? Should I apply for the junior role or a senior UX role if I want to switch? Please help.
Do you have any UX experience? Any projects to show? If yes and if your experience was evaluated as adequate by your UX peers, you can possibly aim for a mid-level role; if not, you will need to start fresh.
Did you get your masters? If so, what school did you go to?
I did. See this vid about my UXR journey: th-cam.com/video/LysMT2jq3-4/w-d-xo.html : )
