I design interfaces that feel intuitive, purposeful, and deeply human.

UI/UX Designer · Design Systems · CRO for E-commerce · Figma · AI-assisted workflows

UI/UX Designer with 4+ years building scalable design systems and conversion-focused e-commerce interfaces in Figma, backed by 14+ years in graphic design and branding. I built a complete design system (foundations, tokens/variables and a component library built to scale).

I use generative AI (Claude, Gemini, Figma Make, Google Stitch) and structured prompts to speed up ideation, audit designs and automate repetitive design-system tasks.

Process

What I Do

End-to-End Product Design: I combine a background in branding, web design and illustration with UI/UX skills to design clear page architectures, high-fidelity interfaces and cohesive digital identities.

Design Systems & Architecture: I build design systems in Figma from scratch: foundations, tokens/variables, component libraries and documentation, so teams stay consistent from wireframe to final product and hand off faster to development.

AI-Assisted Design Workflow: I use AI tools (Claude, Gemini, Figma Make, Google Stitch) to explore concepts, generate interface variations, audit designs and automate repetitive design-system and handoff-documentation tasks.

Leadership & Collaboration: I owned the design system end to end, from foundations and documentation to developer handoff, as the primary designer, collaborating closely with developers, growth teams and account managers to deliver accessible, high-impact solutions.

What teammates say about me

Strong design skills

Over the past six months, Andrés has been one of the designers who has shown the most growth. He has successfully taken on complex projects that require not only strong design skills, but also a deep understanding of design systems and tokens. He built and implemented a complete design system on his own, and his skills, dedication, and accountability directly contributed to the company winning an important design contract.

His biggest growth opportunity is to continue learning and applying more AI tools and workflows to his UI/UX process, using them to improve efficiency, accuracy, and the overall quality of his work.

Miguel Echeverry - Head of DesignPower Digital Marketing

Impressive performance

He has done incredible work on the Edcetera project! He and his team took on something we had never done before! Building hundreds of components, getting the most out of Figma, and absolutely owning it, especially impressive given they were both new to this type of project - the embodiment of the FITFO mentality!

The client was thrilled with the entire process, we delivered on time, and we’re now looking at a service expansion opportunity. That’s the kind of work that speaks for itself.

Alejandra Ospina - Account Manager CoordinatorPower Digital Marketing

Awesome work

Huge shoutout to Andrés for his work on Edcetera! He built out a whole design system to support 2 website projects, and his work was so strong it helped grow the contract into a bigger 10-page project. That meant building design system foundations, a component library, and tokens/variables from scratch. Awesome work!
