About me

Working throughout the complete product lifecycle, I participate in everything from conducting discovery with the product and engineering teams, research and user testing, defining flows, and high-fidelity prototyping, to tracking implementation until the solution reaches production. My role goes beyond the interface; I seek to understand the business problem and technical constraints before proposing any improvement.

Who am I

I am a Product Designer with 7 years of experience in digital products.

I spent two years dedicated to Design Systems, structuring component libraries and conducting handoffs with developers through Zero Height. I am proficient in WCAG guidelines and treat accessibility and usability testing as part of the process from the very beginning of the project. Currently, I am studying AI applied to digital products and metrics, to align design decisions even closer with business results.

Experience

I work close to those who develop, decide, and use.

I am always close to the Product and Engineering team, understanding technical constraints before proposing solutions and monitoring the product both before and after it goes into production.

Education

Research first. Pixel later.

I have a degree in Product Design from UFRGS and a postgraduate degree in User Experience and Human-Computer Interaction from PUC Rio. My undergraduate studies gave me a foundation in process and research, while my postgraduate studies deepened my knowledge in usability, accessibility, and interface evaluation. Currently, I continue to keep myself updated on AI for digital products and metrics.
