I'm jhinne
.
I am a strategic, organized, and creative brain that aims for the best user experience in products, with Industrial design background.
I have crafted my career on understanding current and potential users to offer them quality and effortless products and experiences.
​
I have an analytical approach to the problem, I perform quantitative and qualitative research to discover the root cause and offer the best solution for the user and the business.
"My goal is to provide the best usability of the product or service, always keeping in mind the balance between viability, feasibility and usability with my team"
I'm from Costa Rica, which means everything that involves the sun I'm in! If it's travel, sunbathing, or eating, I don't mind, I mostly need good people around and more than 23Ëš!
What I enjoy the most is eating (I love food!) and exploring hidden places with my van!
