The best interface is usually the result of asking better questions.
Hi, i’m Carolina
I grew up on Terceira Island, in the Azores. Looking back, I think that's where my curiosity started. I've always been the person asking one more question.
My favourite part of design happens before I open Figma. I enjoy connecting the dots, challenging assumptions and finding the real problem before jumping into solutions.
Lately, I've been exploring how AI helps me think faster, prototype quicker and explore more ideas. But the best decisions still come from conversations with people, not prompts.
Fair warning: if something doesn't make sense, I'll probably ask "Why?" one more time.
Tools I use

What people say about working with me.
“She consistently came prepared with thoughtful questions and clear hypotheses, and wasn't afraid to challenge ideas or flag what didn't make sense, which is rare and incredibly valuable.
Methodical and organised, Carolina approaches problems with structure and intention, while staying open to learning and iteration…”
