Available to hire
Hi, I am Ana Timóteo, a Portuguese UI/UX designer with over a decade of experience translating complex ideas into intuitive digital products. I’ve designed for agencies and as a freelancer, shaping user interfaces, brands, and editorial visuals across multiple industries. Most recently I’ve been focused on UI/UX design roles at Serial Hero, HUMA, and BLKO, always aiming to balance usability with strong visual identities.
I’m passionate about design that people feel and remember—bridging strategy, storytelling, and interaction. I enjoy leading projects, collaborating with teams, and exploring how design can drive social impact.
