About

Hello! 👋 I'm a UX UI Designer with over one year of experience joining international teams and projects from Munich and Hong Kong. Currently, I'm looking for remote job opportunities.

I'm passionate about applying my creativity to product experiences and visual design. Basically, I have the chance to design the world we want to live in and add value to our society. I deeply value creating impactful, beautiful, usable, and accessible user experiences by following methodologies like user-centered design, Design Thinking, or Design Sprints. But why I chose UX as my profession? I decided to be UXUI Designer because: - Combines creativity with being technical - UX designers work in a dynamic and multicultural environment - Teamwork is essential, and there is contact with the client and the people you are designing for - Different methodologies can be used to solve problems - Every project is a new challenge - Also I can work in a lot of different industries In addition, I love to learn new things, not only in my professional field but also in my personal life. When I'm not learning new tools or study new courses, I'm learning new languages, practicing all kinds of yoga and climbing, painting with watercolors, play the piano and try new things that make me feel out of my comfort zone.
