Empathy. Passion.

Let's talk

I am a former software engineer that fell in love with the beauty of UX at first sight. I have over 9 years of startup experience in full stack product design, and a strong UX concentration in emotional design(ED).


I speak English & Spanish fluently, and intermediate French and Brazilian Portuguese. For fun I like to run, cook, and attend music festivals & sporting events.

Lets get to work!

I will make sure to provide the most intuitive, stickiest, and emotion-triggering experiences possible. Because as a famous man said,

"Design is not just what it looks like, it's how it works". (and i'll add how it makes a user feel)
