Industrial Design Engineer & UX/UI Designer
Interaction designer working across digital and physical products.
Hey! I'm Amanda :) I'm interested in analyzing people's thinking behind using a product, and how they use and engage with technology, from interfaces and digital products to objects, play and interactive experiences.

About me
A little about me.
I'm a UX/UI Product Designer from Costa Rica with a background in Industrial Design Engineering. I'm fascinated by how people think and take decisions, what makes things fun to interact with, and why some designs just click.
Outside of design, you'll probably find solving puzzles, playing board games, gaming, or somewhere in the mountains looking for birds 🐦
