Hello there!
My name is Maria, I'm a Portuguese Digital Designer with more than 8 years of experience and over 5 of Teaching and Mentoring Design.
I have experience working with start-ups, big tech, and from smaller to larger sized teams. I love my field of work and I always enjoy a good talk about it.
I love to travel (I've been a Digital Nomad for 4 years and counting!) and all things design+tech.
My background involves a BA in Graphic Design, a PG in Web Design and a Masters in Interactive Media and IT Systems.
I usually help people while they are considering a career change to Design; or in their first years working in UXUI Design. If this sounds like you, then I'd love to meet up!
