Successful Projects
I've been crafting UI/UX designs for 6+ years. From insights and strategy to detailed prototypes.
My story
I didn’t come into tech through a traditional path. I grew up in a small village in the Costa Rican mountains.
Life was simple, but it taught me how environments shape behavior, and the importance of adaptability.
A few years later, I moved to Canada, learned two new languages, and got my first PC. That shaped how I learn and solve problems.
Before product design, I worked hands-on roles like groundskeeping, hospitality, and insurance. I taught myself UI/UX design along the way.
These experiences taught me to think under pressure and move forward with incomplete details.

How I drive clarity and execution
Informed by Insights
I turn data and user feedback into designs that solve real problems. Every solution starts with insights.
Guided by feedback
I tackle challenges by testing and refining ideas. Setbacks are just steps toward stronger designs.
Driven by Collaboration
I work across disciplines, valuing each team member’s expertise. Together, we build impactful designs.
