    Thank you so much. Never thought I could use it for marketing purposes. Just using Canva but will give it a go. Thanks for your videos! 💕

      I've had several friends who switched from Canva to Figma this year and they're loving it for putting together marketing assets as well! Let me know how it goes!

    omg thank you for this! can please you do one for adobe photoshop/illustrator/indesign too? i have a marketing degree but we didn’t do use any of this in school only discussion boards and exams. i feel like a lack of portfolio has made me hesitant to apply for high paying jobs .

    • @angelzheng

      I'm honestly not as familiar with those anymore as we mainly use Figma at my work but there are TONS of great videos out there!
      I'd check out Acadium if you want to improve your portfolio for work! I talk about them in this video (czcams.com/video/GrNZChWal8M/video.html) and quite a few people have said they loved Acadium for helping with building their career!

    Great content. I’m curious - did you need permission from your HR person before starting this channel? I have a few friends in tech who were fired after their employers found their CZcams channels and curious how you address this risk.

    Hi there, have you ever Adobe XD? do you think Adobe will merge the two since they bought Figma?

    • @angelzheng
      @angelzheng  Před rokem

      I personally have never used XD! But I really doubt they'll merge it! Figma is such a well thought-out product and it's got such a big community already
