What are these brown spots? I also found a spot that’s missing along the edge. Over watering? Not enough sun?

I’ve experience brown crinkle leaves as not enough humidity or not enough light. Try misting the leaves or putting it next to a humidifier or brighter light. Does this plant get direct sun?

Direct sun can cause burns so keep it to morning sun as it’s not as intense

It’s in an area that’s part sun part shade. It was in a super shady area before and I moved it to the lighter area only last week.
