Welcome!

I’m Ariel, a product designer with experience creating B2B SaaS products. I’m passionate about creating products that solve real problems and meet the needs of both businesses and users.

My educational background in Business-Economics from UCLA equipped me with valuable business knowledge that informs my design decisions today. As a former educator, I gained a diverse range of perspectives, which has helped me develop the skill of empathizing with users and designing solutions that meet their needs.

In my free time, I like to create art in the tradition of the old masters, admire the beauty of nature and wildlife, and enjoy ice cream any time of the day.

"Ariel’s design skills are very distinguished. She has a great product sense and spark of creativity. Nearly all of the new ideas that she proposes would add immense value to the product. She is most definitely in a career path that matches her innate abilities. She is also very organized and has a strong detail-oriented mindset. I am confident that I can assign her a project, and that she will get it completed in a reasonable time on her own. It is obvious to everyone she works with that she wants to grow, and that mentality is infectious. She’s quick to learn and is eager to grow, which sets her up well for continued success."

I had the pleasure of managing her at Bloomfire and found her to be proactive, eager to grow, and willing to jump in and help her colleagues.

Emma Galdo, Director of Product
"Working with Ariel to design SpeakHaus's functional prototype for our coaching platform was an incredible experience. She was diligent and creative in her thinking and design process, and her efforts translated well into a clean, intuitive design. Ariel was also flexible, quickly iterating the design requirements when necessary. Due to her hard work, we have gained traction with new clients and have the ears of investors. I highly recommend hiring Ariel for any UX/UI Design needs!"

Christa Clarke, CEO of SpeakHaus
“I mentored Ariel and she has been one of my top students to date. She has gone above and beyond on her projects, …and has a firm grasp on the steps it takes to take a product to the finish line, how to research users and iterate on their feedback, and to think about all aspects of the design to make sure that it is the best experience for the user. She also displays UI design skills that are comparable to a seasoned professional in the industry. Any company would be lucky to have Ariel on their team and I would recommend her anywhere she decides to go.”
