About me

I decided to start studying design and interaction as a result of both a fascination with the interactive

medium as a whole, and its influence in both new forms of art (video games, interactive experiences...) and my interest in the everyday issues with techonlogy that affected friends and family which increased my interest in the communication between people and their devices.

This led me to study both a Bachelor’s degree in Interactive Product Design, which I graduated as top of my class, and a Master’s Degree in UI & UX Design.

UI and UX Design are the mediums through which people interact with the technology that sustains and improves modern life. Through my studies and my work, I aim not only to improve that relationship, but also to reduce the amount of calls from my extended family about some issues with their TV or their router.
