About Sofia Figueira

I\'m Sofia, a website and strategy designer with a passion for UX.I’m a Brazilian designer focused on digital product design who has been living, studying and working in the US for over 5 years. Currently, I live in beautiful Frisco, Colorado. I have a Masters’s degree in Strategic Design and Management from Parsons, The New School of Design.I believe in user experience. Providing websites and apps that are easy to use is always my goal. I’ve designed many websites alone and with a team. In both situations, organization, communication, and preparedness are key for a successful project. In my day to day work, I combine Design Thinking and the Agile methodology. I’ve worked as a design thinking consultant and have had professional Agile training.Let’s chat and discuss how we can work together.
