## About

```text
I am a Product Design Manager and Director with over 10 years of experience leading design strategy and user experience for intelligent digital products. My journey has taken me through early-stage startups and tech companies, where I have successfully fostered high-performing, remote, multicultural design teams. I believe in championing collaboration with engineering and product counterparts to bring strategic visions to life.

Currently, I serve as the Director of Product Design at Thinkrr.ai, where I lead design leadership in the AI voice space. My previous roles include Design Manager at Formula.Monks, where I encouraged a culture of feedback and skills development among a team of six product designers. I am also the founder of MujeresIT, a community that promotes diversity and inclusion in the tech industry, mentoring over 1500 women in tech.

My expertise spans UX strategy, enterprise design, and design for AI, complemented by a strong foundation in agile methodologies and design thinking. I am passionate about mentoring and empowering others in the tech community, and I continuously seek opportunities to innovate and improve user experiences.
