I'm Slater, and I’ll empower you to launch your UX content career with confidence 🌟
Let's face it — breaking into UX content is hard
UX content is like a different language, and imposter syndrome is all too real. On top of that, there are tons of aspiring UX writers and content designers competing for the same roles that all seem to “require” 3 – 5 years of UX writing experience. How the heck is someone supposed to find their spot in this incredibly-welcoming yet ever-exclusive field?

Who runs this ship? 🚢
I'm Slater Katz, and I've 100% been in your shoes. In 2019, I was a laid-off copywriter with big UX writing dreams. I couldn't quite wrap my head around technical explanations of UX writing and content design, and landing a UX content job felt like a pipe dream.
But I buckled down, and within ~1.5 months, I taught myself enough about UX content to be dangerous and landed my first official UX writing job with Fitbit. Since then, I've gone on to write UX copy for companies like Netflix, Chime, Afterpay, Verizon, Opendoor, and many more.
Now, I help aspiring UX writers build the careers of their dreams (and their wallets 💰) through fantastically-simple education that clicks.
