Building clarity, confidence, and trust in every interaction.

I’m a product-oriented UX Designer who blends empathy with an analytical mindset to design experiences people trust.

I design solutions that turn complexity into clarity, which builds confidence and lasting relationships, and results in meaningful business impact.

Staff UX Designer

By asking why, analyzing data, doing research, and talking to people.

Uncover the root cause for things
Collaborate and have a shared vision

By identifying and involving key stakeholders early in the design process and bringing them together.

Welcome mistakes and change direction

By accepting that some things just don't work the way we expect. By being open to steer fast and get back on track.

Embrace ambiguity and complexity

By listening to others to find common ground for final decisions.

How I design

I am a thoughtful and deeply empathetic person who partners with business and tech professionals to advocate for users, creating cohesive, intuitive, accessible, and scalable solutions that build trust.

I navigate complexity and ambiguity with enthusiasm while building strong connections. My analytical and adventurous mind is always craving learning and experimenting.

Research and data are my allies, but I also tap into my intuition and keen ability to listen and observe to uncover hidden patterns.

Who's MARI?

A human being who happens to draw stuff. A mom of a cat. A person who cannot hold a formal conversation, as they have an actual allergy for that, but please, do not ask for a doctor's notice on this one.
