Available to hire
Hi, I’m Ana, an interdisciplinary designer exploring how physical and digital forms intersect to create meaningful experiences. My work spans product design, brand identity, and hands-on prototyping, with a focus on social impact and cross-cultural collaboration.
I enjoy turning research into tangible products and services, from open-design explorations in Berlin and Quito to user-centered products. I thrive in multidisciplinary teams and love mentoring through the design process.
