I'm Paula,
 nice to meet you!

About Me

I'm a multi-disciplinary designer with 5 years of combined experience working in the design and tech industries. I grew up in Los Angeles using the rich culture, diversity, and art of the city as a source for daily inspirations. It was the city life that initiated my curiosity in how people interact and experience space and how design could be used as a catalyst to improve it.

​

I studied both architecture and landscape architecture where I built the foundation to my design thinking; from systematic thinking skills to visual communication skills. I developed a solid understanding of design thinking methodologies and enjoyment in partaking in a cross-disciplinary approach to spot problems, develop solutions and curate memorable experiences.

​

These days I crossed over to the User Experience realm, where I integrate what I preach, improving the day-to-day drawing connections between digital components and physical environments. I thoroughly enjoy designing for others using design to tell stories and spark emotion.

​

I am currently seeking new UX & Product Design roles where I can take a hands-on approach to new challenges, continue to learn new design strategies, professionally grow and ensure successful products! 

Random Bits

I've traveled to all 6 Disneyland Resort Parks around the world!

I geek out about Nike sneakers and Japanese streetwear. 

In my spare time, I craft. I enjoy the art of making. These days I'm working with resin molds.

Super Mario World for Super Nintendo is my jam. But most recently I've gotten into CoD: Cold War.
