HOLA!
I’m Paola, a UX Designer and Visual Designer from NYC
I believe the most engaging products are crafted with a strong intention. Understanding the problem is crucial to getting desired results. Other than design, I like to zen out to yoga and walk my heart out to reach my daily step count.

My Story
I’m a designer born, raised, and currently living in NYC. Although a designer by training, I consider myself a student of continual experimentation and learning.
My philosophy is to always try new things and be open to new perspectives and opportunities. Design is similar to life. They both require intention and continual refinement to get desired results. I’m passionate about the Edtech, Fintech, and the Wellness industry. I want to collaborate in fixing and solving problems that will help others achieve their goals.
I have 10 years experience designing mostly for B2B from print/digital marketing campaigns to web interfaces. I’ve managed projects outside my comfort zone and delivered successfully. I look forward to building products that are not only useful, but of substance and most importantly meaningful to people’s lives.
