My name's Vanessa,
a fullstack product designer with a strong background in visual and graphic design.
I was born in New York and studied interaction design and marketing at Northeastern University in Boston.
Design is exciting to me because of how I get to see it touch the lives of real people. I enjoy the process of understanding who it is that I'm designing for and seeing a product come to life. The challenge of finding the balance between functionality and aesthetics for everyone is what drives me.

Design is exciting to me because of how I get to see it touch the lives of real people. I enjoy the process of understanding who it is that I'm designing for and seeing a product come to life. I believe good design is subtle yet impactful. The challenge of finding the balance between functionality and aesthetics for everyone is what drives me.
