About me
I have 5 years of experience as a UX and Product Designer, having worked on products in the financial, insurance and loyalty / rewards markets.
I've always been hungry for courses, lectures and events. Transitioned to the Design area with YouTube videos, free courses and getting my hands dirty.
This affected directly in the way I work and think: I like to move through different themes and challenges, not afraid of tools and always looking for new ways and possibilities to improve my process.
