My design journey
I first heard about design during a high school exchange in Canada, when my Computer Technology teacher showed us Paula Scher’s episode from the Abstract docuseries. From that moment on, I was set on becoming a designer.
When I returned home, I enrolled in a vocational program in Multimedia and Web Design, and later completed a Graphic Design degree, graduating with honors. Through hands-on, project-based learning, I explored editorial, branding, product design and more—gaining a strong foundation in layout, typography, strategy and storytelling.
After graduating, I focused on the two areas I loved most: editorial design and product
design.
I’ve since taken courses to build skills in book design, typography, UX,
human-centered and data-informed methods. I enjoy understanding how users interact with what
I create and improving experiences through collaboration and iteration.
Freelancing has taught me how to manage projects, work closely with clients, and keep
improving both my process and communication.
Currently, I’m a member of the
Interaction Design Foundation, where I continuously develop new skills. I also volunteer
as a visual designer at Habits for a Better World, driving social impact through research
and design.
Where You can Find Me
Based between the Canary Islands and Tübingen, Germany, I'm open to freelance and full-time opportunities within Europe.
When I’m not designing, I love spending time reading, crocheting, going on walks, and learning new things.
