Design that starts with access, not aesthetics.

It started in a Universal Design class at university in Chile. I remember the exact moment a professor explained that disability isn't something that belongs to a person, it's created by the environment. That idea changed how I see design entirely.

I studied Spaces and Objects Design at Universidad del Desarrollo in Santiago, a program centered on human needs, spatial thinking, and understanding how people move through and interact with environments. Those tools transferred more directly than I expected: user research, problem framing, designing for how people actually behave rather than how we assume they will.

Since 2022, living in Germany at the time, I started applying that foundation to UX/UI, first through self-directed learning and independent projects, and since late 2024 leading design at 79X Solutions — building complex digital platforms for multiple user types, where clarity, accessibility, and measurable outcomes drive every decision.

Outside of work, I chase good architecture in every city I visit, crochet and knit when my hands need something to do, bike long distances when I need to clear my head, and photograph at Hillsong Torino when I want to be somewhere else entirely.
