Hello. Nice to meet you.
Hi. I’m Paulo.
I am a Japanese Brazilian designer living in Illinois.
I’ve discovered UX tools allow me to reframe my natural curiosity and expertise in a more meaningful professional perspective.
I’m currently translating my skills and 20 years of design thinking to the UX industry, with certification by Google.
What I most value professionally is being part of a healthy working environment.
Because, at the end of the day, that's the workplace UX.
Wherever people are pleased to work at, that’s where I also want to be.
In a close second place would come a creative culture, diversity, and teamwork.
