I specialise in empowering junior professionals to smoothly transition from bootcamps to the job market
I am an experienced Senior UX/UI Designer, a dedicated UX/UI Design Educator, and a Digital Fabrication Expert with over 16 years in the design field. I have contributed my skills to renowned brands such as Volkswagen, Pepsi, Philips, Toon, and letgo, bringing a wealth of experience from both agency and product company settings.
In recent years, I have transitioned to teaching and mentoring aspiring UX/UI Designers, where I am now fully committed. Leveraging my industry knowledge and expertise, I aim to bridge the gap that young designers face between completing a UX/UI Design course and securing their first professional job.
I believe that learning is a holistic experience that extends far beyond the acquisition of isolated facts or skills. It is a dynamic and interconnected journey that encompasses not only the transfer of knowledge but also the cultivation of critical thinking, creativity, and a deep understanding of human relationships and emotional intelligence.
Personalized Guidance
I prioritize a personalized and tailored experience. Recognizing the uniqueness of each learner, I provide support to address individual strengths, challenges, and aspirations. Whether it's refining design skills, understanding user research methodologies, or navigating the intricacies of prototyping tools, I tailor guidance to meet the specific needs and pace of each student.
Fostering Creativity and Uniqueness
By empowering students to explore their imaginative potential, I aim to nurture a generation of thinkers who not only adapt to the evolving industry but also contribute to its advancement through the richness of their unique, creative prespective.

"I’m so happy that I met Susana! She is a great mentor, professional, supportive, very responsive and ready to help anytime with exercises, detailed feedback, resources and regular talks. With her help, in 2 months, I did a lot of progress. I am really looking forward for what’s next. Thank you, Susana!”
"It took me one month to prepare and optimize my job search materials, including three case studies, a portfolio website, a LinkedIn page, and my CV. I had daily chat support for my tasks, making the path easy to follow. Having someone to guide and quality-check my work made me feel safe and confident. I highly recommend this service.”
