Growing up as an 80s baby, I’ve always been interested in technology and the impact that it has on people’s lives. My first portable computer was a Tandy 200; my most recent is an iPhone 15 Pro. Catching up on the latest tech and trying out the latest gadgets is one of my favorite hobbies. In my free time I enjoy the beauty of Humboldt County with my two dobermans.
It's nice to meet you 🙂
START WITH RESEARCH
People first, then technology. Understanding the pain points users have is essential to building the best solutions.
THINK HOLISTICALLY
Investing in sustainable systems, communication policies and brand libraries guarantees consistency and easy handoff.
KEEP IT SIMPLE
Simplicity is a hard work, but it pays off. Keep it as simple and intuitive as possible. The best interface is one you don´t notice.
TEST, RETEST
Listen to people. Benchmarking is a must for every product or project as it helps uncovering better developments.
UX + UI = HXDI
After two decades of developing Integrated Marketing Campaigns (IMC) through user engagement and technology infrastructure, my focus is on Human Experience Design Interactions (HXDI) which prioritizes inclusive accessibility but also acknowledges that AI and assistive tools will frame the conversations – and user engagement – of tomorrow to create innovative new products, technologies and services.
