PRODUCT DESIGNER · UX/UI + GRAPHIC
Designing with everyone in mind, building to contribute.
Hi, I’m Carla, the designer behind Pixel Aware. I’m a product designer with a background in psychology and graphic design. I listen to the people behind the screen, then design tools that are useful, intuitive and easy to use.

ABOUT ME
How psychology shapes my design
For a long time, I listened more than I spoke, and in design that became my strength. Graphic design was my foundation. Then I spent years with children and learners as a teacher, nanny and psychologist, and learned to notice how people really behave.
Today I bring that to UX: user research, information architecture and clear UI. Before I draw a single screen, I listen to the facilitator, the driver, the resident: the people who need to stay in sync and aren’t. I design because creating tools that bring ease to others gives me joy. I work in English and Spanish.

“Design with ease, joy, research and information”
A good product brings ease to the people who use it and value to the business behind it. I take complex ideas and make them simple, straightforward and easy to move through.
