I am a lawyer turned UX designer with experience in human-centered design. I spent the majority of my life in Medellin, Colombia, then moved to the United States to pursue a career in my true passion—UX design.

Fortunately, my legal background contributed a valuable skill set that bridges the gap between law and design. As a lawyer, I asked questions that elicited important information, identified opportunities within the legal system, and proposed solutions that leveraged the insights learned. Today, as a UX designer, I apply these skills by asking questions to deeply understand the people I’m designing for, identifying design opportunities, and bringing into existence validated solutions that both balance business goals and satisfy human needs.

Outside of my UX design career, I enjoy leisure reading and film. I believe my love of cinematography overlaps substantially with my love of design. I especially enjoy films written and directed by Pedro Almodóvar — his visual style and storytelling are sublime.
