Adriana, 27, UX/UI designer. I love warmth, yellow and autumn.
I'm a Formula 1 and Lewis Hamilton fan.

Born in Portugal, I moved to Switzerland at 13, where I studied IT, marketing, communication, and UX/UI design. Thirteen years later, I’ve returned to Portugal to pursue my passion: crafting designs that tell a story.
“Every object tells a story

if you know how to read it.”
- Henry ford
What motivates me
Every object tells a story, and for me, every design begins with one. I’m passionate about the intersection of creativity and technology - it’s where imagination meets innovation to solve real-world problems. But stories aren’t just about creativity; they also carry responsibility.
‍
Working for Hestia.ai, a company founded by Paul-Olivier Dehaye - the mathematician and expert behind the Cambridge Analytica revelations - taught me the vital importance of data protection and user privacy. This experience shaped my belief that design is not just about how things look, but also about how they function and influence users. I am convinced that a good design tells a story of trust, transparency, and respect for the user.
‍
When I’m not immersed in pixels and prototypes, you’ll find me chasing the thrill of a Formula 1 race, wandering through unknown streets with a backpack and a curious heart, or sharing quiet moments with cats and dogs who, like good design, master the art of communication without words. These passions fuel my creativity in unique ways - speed sharpens my precision, travel ignites my curiosity, and animals remind me of the beauty in simplicity.
