I am a UX/UI Designer with a background in Marketing and arts field. I work with User-Centered and Design Thinking process and Figma. My main skills are in UX Design, User Research, Ideating, Wireframing, UI Design, Prototyping and Usability Testing.I’ve been developing a special interest in neuroscience, understanding people's behaviour, their needs and how much design and good user experiences take action in people’s lives. In my design process, I give special focus to users and their feedback to design solutions and validate and improve my ideas.People describe me as a curious, hard worker, creative person who likes to come up with ideas and find solutions.Marketing and UX/UI Design provides me with a vision of strategy, brand and users connection and a balance between business goals and users' needs. 👉🏼 My experienceI have 3.5 years in the tech industry, working as a marketer. My main activities consisted of planning and execution of Marketing Plans with technological partners, integrated-marketing campaigns on social media and email marketing (including content design and copywriting), website and social media management, and events planning (corporative and for clients).I also had the opportunity to work for a few months on Tux&Gill which provided me with the experience to work with brands from different market fields, with different goals and users' needs. 👉🏼 My studiesI finished a 6 months UX/UI Design Ironhack Bootcamp in Lisbon which covered several tools of Design Thinking and User-Centered Design processes: User Experience Research and Empathy (observation, interviews & surveys), User Interface Design, User personas, User Stories and Journeys, Prioritization, Information Architecture (Card Storting, Sitemaps, User Flows), Wireframing (low, mid and high fidelity), Usability Test, Branding, Design (moodboards, atomic design, style guides) & Prototyping on Figma.
