UX Designer

My passion for UI/UX design is rooted in years of experience building meaningful relationships with customers and understanding their needs. I thrive on analyzing data and feedback to design solutions that tackle real problems at their core. This love for problem solving, paired with a growing fascination for user centered design, has fueled my commitment to learning and evolving in the field.

Now, I’m excited to transition into a full-time UI/UX design role, where I can apply my skills, contribute to thoughtful, impactful projects, and continue growing as a creative and strategic designer.

I’ve embraced a journey of growth, both personally and professionally. Born in Mexico and now living in the U.S., I’ve learned to navigate and adapt to new cultures while staying rooted in my heritage. Being fluent in both Spanish and English allows me to connect and communicate effectively with people from diverse backgrounds.

My passion for learning fuels everything I do, especially in the world of UX design. This field has taught me the value of patience, problem solving, and attention to detail. I approach challenges with curiosity and a deep analytical mindset, always looking for thoughtful, effective solutions, whether in design or in life.

At my core, I’m a lifelong learner who finds opportunity in every obstacle, embraces growth through every experience, and brings empathy, adaptability, and determination to everything I do.
