Hey, I'm Cate.
Hello! I’m a dynamic Luso-Canadian Product Designer based in Toronto. I hold an undergraduate degree in Communication Design and Interactive Multimedia, as well as a Master's in Human-Centered Design Engineering. Currently, I'm pursuing a Master's in Computer Science.
With over 15 years of experience in UX, product analytics, and strategic thinking, I’ve worked across diverse sectors, including SaaS, PaaS, and DSaaS. Passionate about leveraging data and emerging technologies, I excel at adapting to change and designing solutions that drive innovation and effectiveness.
I’m interested in autonomous vehicles, human-centered interaction, and 3D motion design, specializing in crafting intuitive, interactive products that simplify complex systems.
Outside of work, you’ll find me exploring the world, immersing myself in nature, or diving deeper into all things design.
