Nice to meet you!
I’m a designer focused on building accessible, meaningful experiences for the digital world.
Born and raised in Buenos Aires, I majored in Multimedia design at college where I gained expertise in visual design, communication, and how people and technology connect.
My goal is to make a meaningful impact through design and design thinking. I prioritize achieving results that bring joy to users, success to businesses, and pride to designers.
Previously I’ve worked at Amalgama, Bitpatagonia and Bigbox where some of my tasks involved empathizing, establishing both user's and business needs and goals, conducting research, documenting findings, conceptualizing possible solutions, transforming those ideas into sketches, mockups, and eventually testing the products with real users. You can see some of my work here.
During the past few years, I have developed a strong passion for education which is why I decided to start teaching and mentoring students through their first steps in design. In the last years I’ve worked at Digital House and Coderhouse, two of the biggest institutions in Latin America. I have also facilitated workshops at Fundación Maria Guadalupe and the University of Buenos Aires (FIUBA and FADU), it’s something I’m really proud of.
I consider myself as a great colleague, designer and first and foremost, a great person. I believe I can take on challenges and make the ones around me feel comfortable and valuable.
