About
Thanks
for dropping by,
I am Maria.
I am an empathetic UX Designer, curious human, attentive listener.
First generation Filipina-Australian UX Designer hanging out in Gayemagal Country (Northern Beaches, Sydney), with over a decade experience in human-centric positions honed in design, marketing and operations. Working in organisations for non-for-profit, Healthcare and SaaS.
In addition to my passion for design, I care about social impact and diversity. I have a fascination with the natural world and holistic modalities. On weekends, you’ll find me basking in the sunshine somewhere or being a personal Uber driver to my teenage Son.
As a person who cultivates empathy and creativity, I am eager to collaborate on projects that make a difference.
I invite you to reach out.
Maria
