ALIX SIMO RIBERA
Web, UI/UX & Product Designer
ABOUT ME
A creative, determined and goal-oriented person. I enjoy collaborating with my team members and other stakeholders to solve problems. I support honest feedback and constructive criticism to elevate team performance and enhance effective collaboration.
I am passionate about creating purposeful designs that are engaging, useful, people and solution-oriented. Designs that provide intuitive solutions to the complex world we live in.
As a Graphic Designer I create eye-catching and brand consistent designs that communicate effectively. As a Web and UI/UX Designer I take ownership of the design challenges, from user flows, wireframes, low-fidelity prototypes, leading all the way up to high-fidelity ones. At the same time, I collaborate with developers and other teams to ensure high-quality and faithful implementation
