About me

I am a product designer from San José, Costa Rica.

I have a Bachelor's in Industrial Design Engineering from the ITCR and I'm currently in a post-bachelor program researching communication strategies in biomedical research, as well as being a product designer + researcher in CIVCO.

My skillset is wide, but whether I'm designing and programming data visualizations to power insight-driven decision-making, or interviewing users to uncover areas of friction in digital or in-person experiences, I seek to create interactions that will make your clients think: "They read my mind".

I'm always on the lookout for opportunities to bring a user-centered-perspective to areas that would benefit from it. This was when I was a design consultant in a nursing student hackathon

In my free time I am usually out in nature, whether it's recharging or volunteering to clean a river in my city. I also enjoy film and videogames, as well as any and all creative endeavors
