Hi, I'm Rita

Leading end-to-end design for complex digital products, with a focus on healthcare and emerging technologies.

• Facilitated design sprints and discovery workshops
• Designed scalable systems and end-to-end flows
• Bridged design, product, and engineering teams

Owned key product areas, contributing from early concepts to high-fidelity delivery.

• Translated complex requirements into clear experiences
• Collaborated closely with engineers to ensure feasibility
• Improved usability across core product journeys

Built a strong foundation in UX and UI across multiple projects and industries.

• Supported user research
• Designed interfaces and interaction patterns
• Balanced user needs with business goals

An intensive course focused on human-centered design, usability, and digital product strategy. I developed skills in user research, journey mapping, wireframing, and prototyping using modern tools and practices. As part of the final project, I collaborated with a team to redesign a real e-commerce experience for Fnac.pt, addressing key UX pain points and proposing data-informed improvements.

During this internship, I took on the role of Product Owner for a self-initiated product idea. I led early-stage product discovery by conducting market research, user interviews, and questionnaires to validate the concept. This experience gave me a full view of the business side of product development, from identifying user pain points to shaping value propositions. It was a foundational moment that sparked my transition into product design.

A multidisciplinary design program with a strong digital focus. I explored everything from web development and interactive installations to motion graphics and game design. This broad foundation gave me both creative range and technical adaptability.
