Complex Work, Clear Story: Portfolios for Senior Designers with Aneta Kmiecik Live Q&A

Complex Work, Clear Story: Portfolios for Senior Designers with Aneta Kmiecik Live Q&A

May 28, 2025 9:00 am Eastern
If you’ve ever stared at your screen wondering how the hell you’re supposed to showcase a 2-year B2B service design project buried under NDAs… this live AMA is for you.

You’ve got years of experience, complex projects, and a portfolio full of… question marks.

What do you do when your UX work doesn’t fit the typical case study format?

Join me and UX portfolio coach Aneta Kmiecik for a conversation built around senior designers who feel stuck. We’ll tackle the real challenges: not enough visuals, too much complexity, or work that was scrapped before launch.

This isn’t Portfolio 101. This is practical advice for experienced designers navigating tough constraints. Come with questions, leave with clarity.

We’ll cover how to structure your stories, work around sensitive content, and tailor your portfolio for the next opportunity, not the last one.

In this live Q&A, Aneta will answer your questions about:

  • Showcasing work under NDAs
  • Simplifying complex, multi-year projects
  • Highlighting research & service design work
  • Making a strong first impression
  • Presenting journey maps & systems clearly
  • Tailoring your portfolio for your next role

Got a specific challenge? Bring your question, and we’ll tackle it live.

Submit your questions below and join us on May 28th!
