About me
Hallo, I’m Margarida! A 27-year-old originally from Portugal, now based in Munich. In 2019, I decided to step out of my comfort zone and explore new opportunities abroad, both personally and professionally.
My background is in fine arts, which shaped my strong conceptual thinking and curiosity for exploration. Over time, my path naturally led me into digital product design, where I get to do what I love most—turning abstract into something real. There’s nothing more exciting than listening to someone’s vision and bringing it to life.
Since I spend most of my time in front of screens, my offline world is all about balance. I love cooking, walk around my analog camera, running, going to the movie theatre, and biking around town. I’m always up for exploring something new.

Core capabilities
Interface
I focus on creating visually engaging and cohesive digital outcomes, focusing on consistent and responsive design systems. From layouts and typography to color schemes, every detail is designed to enhance usability and create a strong visual identity.
Experience
From user research to intuitive interactions, I design experiences that put users first. This includes mapping out user journeys, creating process blueprints, wireframing, and defining workflows to ensure seamless and user-centered interactions.
Process
Great design starts with a solid foundation and strong strategy. I believe that having a clear structure and process gives you the freedom to explore, experiment, and create with confidence.
