Hi there, call me
Gui
Design is never done
There's always a better solution. It just changes as we learn more. What keeps me going is asking questions and figuring out why.
I got hooked on interactive media through video games. As a kid, I kept wondering why some games handled the same information so much better than others.
I’ve worked at an ad agency, a game studio, and a design consultancy. I joined Klaviyo in 2018 and I’m now a Lead Product Designer. I still want to understand what’s behind the screen: what someone is trying to do, and what’s getting in their way.
