SHORT BIO<\/h3>\n

Hi, I’m Nic\u00f3le; <\/strong>a multidisciplinary designer with super powers in UI\/Visual and UX design. I craft intelligent, creative solutions that resonate with users, bridging the gap between product, brand, and their world. My design approach is rooted in thorough research and data-driven decisions, always aiming for solutions that are desirable, feasible, and viable for both users and businesses.<\/p>\n

Currently, I lead user research and data driven design for SAP Learning systems, overseeing the user experience for two of SAP\u2019s golden key touchpoints, guiding projects from concept to launch alongside product managers and engineers.<\/p>\n

With over 16 years of experience, I\u2019ve worked in fast-paced, multifaceted environments requiring innovative problem-solving and attention to detail. My past roles include Lead Designer at Adhera Health and Creative Director at Abi Global Health. I’ve also collaborated with brands like Home Depot, Kellogg’s, Smithsonian, and Harvard University.<\/p>\n

I hold a master\u2019s in User Experience from the University of Barcelona and a BFA from Savannah College of Art and Design. I\u2019m proud to mentor future female designers at AllWoman, a higher education institution.<\/p>\n

Beyond design, I love traveling, photography, cooking, and crafting, with a passion for sustainability and the well-being of our planet. Originally from South Africa, I\u2019m currently based in Barcelona after spending nearly a decade in the U.S.<\/p>\n

Thanks for stopping by!<\/p>\n
