About Me

Hi! I'm Maya. I'm a student of life, a people person, a coloring-book enthusiast, a goofy mom, a Product Designer. I help businesses and teams to align strategic goals, design comprehensive solutions, and launch compelling products.

When I’m not untangling knotty design problems, I love urban hiking, binging

TV shows, and playing with my

hilarious daughter.

I created a new website for A Jobs List that allows them to easily update their content. This included information architecture, UX content writing, branding color palette, custom form generation, SEO optimization, and aesthetic design.

At startup Artikos, I have conducted competitive analysis, developed information architecture, performed user research, crafted wireframes and prototypes, managed the design team, and utilized tools such as Jira, Github, and Discord.

Over the course of two hackathons, I widened my repertoire in leadership, project planning, presentation building, information architecture, and design problem-solving-- on a tight deadline. It was an honor to earn third place on my first hackathon, and to be recruited for a startup after the second. 

Diving into an immersive UX/UI design program, I learned the UX Process, portfolio building, design thinking, and so much more. Combined with my hybrid background as a creative in retail and an admin in finance, I bring a uniquely imaginative-yet-analytical

mindset to UX processes.
