Who am i
I’m Guilherme, a UX designer with a background in architecture. I’ve worked for a range of companies, including architectural studios and marketing analyst freelancer.
Through my background in architecture, I’ve learned how to solve problems using both visual concepts and rationale. From there, I had an instant connection with the UX field as an opportunity to identify and solve problems in a creative, user-centered way, in efforts to make people's life both easier and enjoyable.
