Who's writing

Laura

Product Designer specializing in complex digital products and systems.

For the past four years, I've worked across GovTech, SaaS, healthcare, logistics, and education, helping teams transform complex workflows into clear, scalable experiences.

I work across the full product lifecycle, from discovery and research to interaction design, documentation, and delivery. My role often sits at the intersection of users, business goals, and technical constraints, translating different perspectives into product decisions.

I believe design is most valuable when it creates clarity: clarity for users navigating complex systems, and clarity for teams deciding what to build and why.

Fuel & compass

Curiosity has always been the constant.

This year I left Brazil and spent six months traveling through Central America, combining remote work with volunteer experiences across different communities and cultures. Being constantly placed in unfamiliar environments strengthened something that has always shaped the way I design: observing first, understanding context, and listening before making assumptions.

Travel reminded me that every system has invisible rules. The way people navigate a city, access public services, communicate, solve problems, or adapt to limitations reveals a lot about human behavior. Those observations often influence how I think about products and the experiences we create.

Outside of work, you'll usually find me running, exploring coffee shops, photographing places I visit, reading about cities, public services, mobility, and systems thinking, or following motorsport while still dreaming about owning an air-cooled Porsche 911 someday.

Every chapter has shaped the way I see and solve problems today.

Growing up in Brazil, building products across different industries, and experiencing different cultures have continuously expanded the way I understand people, systems, and the environments they operate in.

Throughout my career as a Product Designer, I have worked on products where complexity is part of the challenge: digital public services, healthcare workflows, logistics operations, and SaaS platforms. Across these different contexts, the work has always come back to the same principle: understanding the people behind the system and creating experiences that make their work clearer, more efficient, and easier to navigate.

These photographs are not just a timeline of where I have been. They represent the perspectives I bring into every product conversation: curiosity to understand the context, discipline to uncover the real problem, and the ability to turn complexity into meaningful solutions.

TODAY

I'm interested in joining teams where design has a strategic role in shaping products, not only refining experiences.

My strongest work happens in complex environments where understanding the problem is as important as designing the solution.

I enjoy partnering with product, engineering, and stakeholders to turn ambiguity into clear decisions and scalable experiences.

I’m currently open to opportunities across Europe, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Canada, and remote-first teams where I can contribute through discovery, product strategy, and end-to-end product design.
