LA born - Mexican American
As a Senior Principal Product Designer at Everfi, I'm passionate about creating learning experiences that truly resonate with users. I focus on ensuring our courses are consistent, visually engaging, and intuitive. My design approach centers on empathizing with users, analize their needs, conceptualizing innovative solutions, and crafting polished designs. I also spearheaded the development of our animation team, adding a layer of dynamic engagement to our products. My diverse background, spanning motion graphics, graphic design, and interactive web, has shaped my ability to blend compelling visuals with user-centered design, allowing me to create engaging experiences for brands like Lyft, Sony, Google, and Disney. Ultimately, I'm driven to create delightful digital products and foster a collaborative design culture. Check out my design showcase to see what I've been up to!
My Design ShowcaseStart Small, Achieve Big
Our work is inherently user-centric. Why wait until the end to involve them? Instead, let's start small by focusing on the user's perspective. What do they need? What do they want? By prioritizing their needs and empathizing with their experiences, we can create products that truly resonate. This approach not only enhances user satisfaction but also aligns with a company's broader goals and project timelines. Remember, every journey starts with a single step. So let's take that first step and prioritize the user.
Originality is Everywhere
Throughout my career, I've come to appreciate the unique contributions of designers at all levels. Whether senior or junior, each individual brings a valuable perspective and skill set to the table. By collaborating and sharing knowledge, we elevate every project and create exceptional user experiences.In all of my career I have learned that senior and juniors mean that they all design and understand and rare unique in their own right helping every project with every thought.
Streamline for Efficiency
I've learned the hard way that a solid process is essential. Without one, we end up wasting time on repetitive tasks, constantly reinventing the wheel. My goal now is to streamline our workflow and eliminate unnecessary steps, focusing on the creative and strategic aspects of our work.
