Hola, hello, bonjour!

Hola, hello, bonjour!

I’m a Midwest-based, Guatemalan-born designer driven by curiosity and the belief that design should make complexity feel simple. With a background rooted in fine arts, marketing, and design. I approach every project with both creative depth and strategic clarity. Whether mapping complex systems, exploring early ideas, or integrating generative AI into the design process, I lead with curiosity, empathy, and a commitment to intentional, purpose-driven design.

Currently, I design user-centric software for the engineering industry — helping streamline workflows for teams across office, field, and lab environments. My work is grounded in user discovery, collaboration, and with the user always in mind.

Outside of design, you’ll find me exploring new restaurants, tending to my kitties & plants as well as , practicing yoga, or planning my next travel adventure.
