What I Do

End-to-End Design Capabilities

From strategy and research through high-fidelity delivery and dev handoff — I work across the full product design spectrum.

Product Design

0→1 product thinking: discovery, user research, information architecture, and interaction design for web apps, dashboards, and mobile platforms.

UX Research

Empathy-led design driven by data. User interviews, usability testing, journey mapping, and translating insights into actionable design decisions.

Data Dashboards

Complex data made clear — BI dashboards, analytics interfaces, and operational tools designed to reduce cognitive load and accelerate decision-making.

Design Systems

Scalable component libraries in Figma — consistent tokens, documentation, and handoff that keeps design and engineering perfectly aligned.

Mobile UX

Native iOS/Android and cross-platform app design — responsive, touch-optimized interfaces that extend hardware ecosystems into seamless software experiences.

Web & Brand Design

Marketing sites, e-commerce, and brand systems. From visual identity to production-ready HTML/CSS — I bring concepts all the way to launch.

About

Hi, I'm Carlos

A Product Designer dedicated to crafting immersive user experiences driven by data and empathy.

I partner with companies to create exceptional digital journeys — combining functionality, usability, and aesthetics. With roots in consumer electronics (Sony) and a track record spanning healthcare, EdTech, SaaS, and AI, I bring cross-industry pattern recognition to every project.

I'm passionate about the intersection of hardware and software — designing connected experiences that bridge physical products to digital ecosystems. I'm also deeply invested in AI-augmented design, exploring how emerging tools can enhance — not replace — human-centered design thinking.

Based in Southern California. Open to remote, hybrid, and on-site opportunities.
