Hi I'm Sara!
I have been creating websites and apps that are visually stunning and technically sound, with enterprises and startups since 2011.
Have an exciting project?
I'm a multi-skilled creative with more than a decade of experience in the conceptualization and development of high-quality digital products, enabling business capability and objectives through technology. During the last six years as a design lead and a design manager guiding agile projects, I've delivered complex and cross-functional products and programs from scratch within aggressive timelines; being able to balance user-oriented decision-making with a strategic business perspective.
I've worked on fast-growing startups worldwide, which has allowed me to identify variations in cultural needs and expectations. I’ve also learned to adapt quickly to new methodologies, software, and processes.
What do I do?
- Aligning product vision with business objectives.
- Leveraging data to inform design decisions.
- Creating exceptional user experiences through research and testing.
- Rapidly iterating on design concepts.
- Developing and maintaining scalable design systems.
- Creating intuitive and visually appealing interfaces.
- Developing engaging visual aesthetics.
- Designing inclusive products for all users.
- Building and mentoring high-performing design teams.
How do I see myself?
- I can traverse from abstract to concrete.
- I can understand a problem and open multiple perspectives to solve it.
- I'm a critical thinker.
- I usually go off on a tangent, but I know that and return to the point. That makes me a great storyteller.
- I feel deep, and it's exhausting, but it allows me to be highly empathetic.
- I like to read.
- I'm a skilled writer and communicator who can clearly explain complex ideas.
- I am a Yogi
