I'm Julia. I started learning about design when I was a kid, when I was always tinkering with cassette tapes, piling them up, creating little skyscrapers and cities. I often draw and try my hand at graphic design. Design is in everything I do, from decorating my house to larger, user-centric projects.

I have a Masters degree in Strategic Design for Innovation and Transformation, a joint degree from Politecnico di Milano (Graduate School of Management + School of Design).

I have a bachelor's degree in Architecture and Urban Design from the Mackenzie Presbyterian University in Brazil. During that time, I was also part of a research team on underrepresented communities (LABSTRATEGY). You can read my published article here (PT-BR).

Since then, I have searched for ways to integrate design and systemic thinking into my work, which is when I started my journey as a product designer.
