Hello,

Nice to meet you, I'm Virna ✨

I am a Brazilian UX/UI designer living in Toronto with 5+ years of experience in Product Design.

Due to my background as a web designer, UX designer, and as a UI designer taking care of a Design system, I value organization, consistency, and building interfaces that make sense not only to the users but also to the team I'm working with.

What I can bring to the table is curiosity and a willingness to help whenever necessary. I consider myself collaborative, adaptable, and perceptive to details.

Since I got into UX/UI design, I've worked in different industries, such as newspaper, telecommunication, and recently real estate. Experiencing different roles and areas made me realize the common denominator is my love for collaborating with the team, exchanging knowledge while solving problems, and building interfaces and experiences!

As a person 👽, my interests are:
Drawing, biking, horror movies, ice cream, walking and exploring neighbourhoods aimlessly ❤️
