About
Hello there! 👋 I'm Julio Castellano, a seasoned Product Design Lead with over 10 years of experience in the UX/UI field. Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of contributing to and leading design teams at some of the world's most iconic tech companies, such as Canva, Block, Cash App, Afterpay, Foxtel, General Assembly, and Woolworths.
My passion for design goes beyond the work itself; I also take pride in coaching and mentoring fellow designers, helping them grow both personally and professionally. Over the years, I've conducted numerous interviews and hiring processes, giving me invaluable insights into what companies seek during portfolio reviews and interviews.
Teaching and mentoring have been significant aspects of my journey, with experiences at Academy Xi and General Assembly. As a hands-on designer, I'm well-versed in best practices for iOS, Android, and responsive web design, as well as effective techniques in user-centered design, user research, workshops, design systems, UI design, and prototyping.
Here are some ways I can assist you:
• Leveling up in Product Design, UX/UI
• Boosting your creative confidence
• Focusing on what truly matters in your design process
• Nailing job interviews with confidence
• Crafting compelling portfolios and impactful case studies
• Overcoming design hiring challenges
• Developing essential soft skills for success
• Providing valuable career and startup advice
When you work with me, you can expect:
• A keen ear to listen and understand your goals and aspirations
• Customized development plans tailored to your specific objectives
• Clear explanations of complex design concepts
• Engaging UX & UI design exercises to enhance your skills
• Access to an array of awesome design resources
• Support and guidance whenever you encounter roadblocks
• Thorough preparation for any upcoming interviews
My educational background includes a Bachelor of Science (First Class Honors) in Design, Technology, and Innovation from Technological University Dublin.
Let's connect and explore how I can help you thrive in the world of design. You can find me at my website: https://juliocreative.com and connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/juliocastellano/. Looking forward to connecting with you soon!
