Just my 2 cents, but my first impression was that you have a lot of technical design skills, maybe focusing more on the human relationships/ facilitating workshops / mentoring could help.
I imagine that getting promoted is more related to the way you show ownership and act everyday than technical skills.

As a fellow latina in the US, I have worked as a product designer doing the same tasks as other Senior designers and it was really hard to get promoted…
Maybe where you work there are more clear definitions for the career ladder, that helps too

I’m doing my first UX portfolio on Wix. I have the case studies content drafted out, but I’m struggling with brainstorming wireframes/actual UI for my case studies. I make it a rule to look for dribbble/behance for inspo but only sketch when im not looking at things because I don’t want to copy directly.

I’ve tried using paper/thin markers highlighters, tried using procreate, and also illustrator/photoshop & a tablet. I keep running into issues where I feel overwhelmed. How do I simplify this?

Is it normal for a Product Owner to lay out specs for how a feature should work?

I thought that was my job as the ux designer to figure out the best way to solve a need. But I’m getting handed projects where the PO, and sometimes the senior designer has laid out exactly what should happen (components used, flow, etc) to design a feature. It’s really frustrating because I don’t know if I’m supposed to be speaking up on what I think or just do the UI work I’m asked to.
