  • i started fiddling with Figma yesterday, the design tool recommended by @kadlac in his 80/20 design course

    4 hours in and I can already sense that it has *huge* potential!

    the stuff I’m producing already feels a lot lighter and visually compelling

  • "I learned a lot from Nate. SERIOUSLY. I had tried using Figma before but I just didn't understand anything at all.

    But thanks in large part to Nate I feel like I'm very good using Figma. After finishing the first day I could not wait to keep on learning. Every single day I would receive an email with a Figma file as well as a Loom video and let me tell you, it's VERY, VERY, VERY valuable content."

  • "Loved the email series"

  • You'll level up your Figma game within hours of watching, and can then easily start experimenting to impress clients, classmates, teachers, etc. Nate makes it super easy to learn, which is awesome."

  • "Thank you Nate! The best investment I made this year. Every dollar is worth it! Waiting for the next course!"

  • "The price to value ratio on this product is insane. Although I didn't necessarily know that up front, I knew enough about Nate's reputation to feel comfortable YOLOing in and worrying about the rest later."

  • "I wish I had learned this years ago for all those semi-beautiful presentations I created."

  • I already "designed" my first thing! My son graduated from ABA therapy this past week and I wanted it to feel special - balloons, a graduation cap, cake, etc. I usually would have skipped designing anything visual because I felt it would take too long or not look good, but after a few lessons I just hopped in and made a digital screen that I mirrored onto the TV for a special touch!

Nate radically shifted how I see design in many aspects of my work and I think one of the biggest mistakes I made was not working with Nate earlier!
