Hi I’m Luisa, a product designer designer who codes builder maker based in the Bay Area. I enjoy working with smart and kind people to solve hard fun wicked problems. Currently, I’m at Auth0 building creating designing the future of identity security.

About Me

As a product designer, I enjoy tackling complex and meaningful problems with smart and kind people. I believe that design is done best when it is human-centered and evidence-based.

I have led the launch of high-impact products from 0 to 1 and also owned the continuous improvement of existing products. I’m most motivated by solving tricky problems and shipping great software and I’ve spent most of my career focused on building tools in the enterprise B2B SaaS space.

With a background in Computer Science I like to use code for prototyping and I’ve shipped features to production! I also have a Master’s in Data Visualization and Analytics which I put to use when reviewing and defining product success metrics or presenting user research insights.

Outside of work, I like to get outside, read lots of books, and explore new hobbies — most recently I’ve been loving quilting.
