Hola!
Hi! I'm Valeria, a Researcher &
Strategic Designer
Being a designer with 6 years of experience and a background on Business Engineering, I focus on identifying and solving problems from a methodological and human-centric approach.
I'm a very passionate and energetic person, who loves to explore and discover how people think and why they do certain things. As a designer, I apply user research, concept creation and co-creation through workshops to create holistic experiences from a human's point of view.
Currently, I'm a MSc/MA Innovation Design Engineering student at Imperial College London & Royal College of Art (Class 2023) to expand my skills on engineering and physical product design. Surprisingly, it has led me to re-discover my long-time interest in sustainability, and to explore how indigenous and traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) might help create a more resilient future and symbiotic relationship between nature and humanity.
