Hello! I'm Yaxlei
Hello! I'm Yaxlei
I studied design, consumer psychology, and Latinx studies at The University of Pennsylvania.
Through my work I've explored coding, integrated product design, consumer behavior and marketing. These disciplines have equipped me to center user needs first and present approachable solutions.
When I'm not designing you can find me working in any artistic medium I can get my hands on. Like painting, photography, making custom press-on nails, curating my sketchbook, and more.
