¡Hola!

I’m Mela. With 12 years in tech, including 10 years in visual design and 6 years in UX research, design, and strategy. I’m now expanding into product and project management while remaining open to UX research opportunities.

I started my career in visual design in Colombia, then moved to the United States, where I worked with tech companies across the full product lifecycle. I’ve collaborated in agile teams, helping turn research and ideas into digital experiences that make sense to people and work well in real life.

I recently completed a Master’s in Responsible AI at Elisava in Barcelona, where I focused on ethical tech, governance, and user-centered innovation. Now, I’m excited to apply this experience to roles that bring clarity, coordination, and care to building responsible technology.

Outside of work, I enjoy being in nature, drawing, painting, spending time with friends, my cat Teh-Teh, and learning about wellness and sustainability.
