Story
My career vision is to lead innovative, brand-centered projects where I can integrate my design and business experience. With a strong foundation in project management and collaboration, I aim to eventually move into a role that combines creative direction with strategic planning to help brands deliver exceptional, user-centered solutions.
I thrive in collaborative environments, where I can learn, challenge, and support my team. I approach each challenge with a beginner’s mindset and a genuine curiosity to explore new solutions. Thanks for stopping by—I invite you to check out my work, and I’d love to connect to discuss new projects and ideas!
Hello! I’m Jessica Sanabria, a UX designer with a knack for problem-solving and a love for both the aesthetic and functional sides of design. My journey in UX is driven by a desire to understand the psychological underpinnings of user behaviors and to transform those insights into functional, visually compelling experiences. I find immense satisfaction in the process—researching, listening, and balancing the needs of users with the goals of stakeholders.
Raised in the vibrant culture of South America, my design style carries a touch of bold color and lively expression balanced with a minimalist elegance. My background in graphic design allows me to draw inspiration from art, travel, and photography, bringing life and personality into each project. Outside of design, I’m passionate about painting, cooking, and running—activities that teach me patience, focus, and the joy of pushing past boundaries.
