Before UX

After moving from Monterrey, Mexico, I was placed in ESL and learned that spaces aren't always built for everyone. Now, I design so it is.

At UTRGV, I found graphic design and earned my BFA. I started as an intern at OMG! RGV (opens in a new tab) and was made editor-in-chief, leading a team of 5 designers.

Small-Business Websites

While earning my UX Master's, I built websites for three small businesses: two dental ventures started by executives from the dental group I worked at, and Mindful Training ATX, a dog training business. I set each one up for the owners to run on their own.

In 2018, I was Cadravo (opens in a new tab)'s one-person design team. I designed the logo and website graphics and grew social from zero, alongside a developer, a copywriter, a PR manager and the CEO and COO.

Project Insight

Investors waited 3–5 days for data. As the sole designer on a 12–15 person team, I designed self-serve dashboards, including a FEMA disaster map, and tested them with 5 investors.

Bond Centre 2.0

I turned a cluttered bond portal into a guided experience for bondholders and admins: split navigation, wizards and inline uploads. Shipped to production.

CASE STUDY 03

H2O Data Verify

The ask was vague, and my first draft missed. So I sat down with a developer, sketched it out, and turned a cluttered fraud-check screen into one clear table of scores and alerts you can act on. Approved for production.

Fridays-Off

I co-founded Fridays-Off, a luxury lifestyle and home goods brand. I designed the identity, built a 460+ product Shopify store with accessibility from day one and used AI to custom-code the theme, render product imagery and fully automate our social media.

    Playtesting Retail Mage

    I hosted 10–15 playtests for a PC game by Jam & Tea Studios. Our findings led to clearer type, name tags and a new tutorial, and I designed the store map. I'm in the credits.

    From Customer Complaints to Shipped Fixes

    Customers couldn't find products online, so I audited the site, online menu and app on my own. Several fixes went live.
