I had the privilege of working with Ana for 2 years. During this time, I had the pleasure of collaborating with a designer who excels at information architecture, stakeholder mapping, and conducting necessary validations to tackle challenges efficiently. I would like to highlight her expertise in building libraries in Figma, meticulous documentation organization, and the creation of streamlined processes that greatly enhance team productivity. Ana approaches her work with a proactive and human touch, fostering a light and enjoyable team atmosphere.

My students

The following comments were extracted from surveys conducted by Blas Pascal University at the end of 2023 and 2024; and MET (Women in Technology) in September 2022. The surveys were anonymous.

UBP 2023

My opinion of the teacher is excellent, both for her knowledge and for her way of teaching classes, which is very motivating and well disposed. Additionally, she provided us with additional time to teach us how to use Figma. Total genius!

MET

Very good. Very friendly and empathetic. She had everything good and needed to give the talk. A total inspiration.

UBP 2023

The teaching and willingness were excellent. Many practical cases and examples of product designs from large companies were provided. Very clear in explaining the concepts. Highly recommended, one of the best teachers!

MET

The truth is that the speaker's explanations were excellent! Very clear with all the details, examples, and tips she provided. The fact that she did a live demonstration of how to create sketches in Figma was awesome!

UBP 2024

Excellent! The classes were very engaging and the content was super valuable. For me, it was the best one because it’s exactly what I need to specialize in UI. Thank you!

UBP 2023

The teacher stands out as a high-quality professional, with solid knowledge and an exceptional willingness to share her specific expertise.

MET

Eager to continue learning about prototyping, and Ana's resources for further learning were invaluable!

UBP 2023

Ana taught all the topics of the module in the most didactic way, and it is evident that she enjoys teaching and sharing her knowledge generously. Although I couldn't connect online to the classes due to work issues, I watched the recordings. I feel that I learned well and noticed that Ana has a lot of patience to repeat explanations of topics as many times as necessary when asked, which is very valuable for the student. I appreciate it a lot because it made me feel comfortable if any topic or piece of information wasn't clear to me.

UBP 2023

Very willing to share and teach. Topics well-explained.

UBP 2024

Genius! She really knows her stuff—her classes were super engaging and fun.

UBP 2023

Great mastery of the subject, applying positivity and maximum willingness.

MET

We had a lot of fun in the workshop, our group is great. Ana is super attentive and concise. We remember everything.

UBP 2023

Excellent teacher, very knowledgeable about the subject and very friendly.

UBP 2023

She's amazing, she stayed an extra hour explaining!

MET

Ana's talk was excellent. I noticed a lot of generosity on her part in sharing examples and extremely valuable resources. A perfect 10!

UBP 2024

Excellent module, both in content and real-world application. The instructor’s performance was impeccable—so far, the most complete in every aspect. She shared additional materials beyond the platform content, and the live sessions were always full of examples, real explanations, and theory explained to perfection.

Although I’m not currently teaching, it’s something I truly enjoy—being able to share what I know.
