Who I am.

I am Beatriz, a product designer based in Zürich, Switzerland.

I'm currently a mid-level Product Designer at TestingTime.
I'm a lover of powerful, elegant, and impactful design. I'm always up for challenging work that provides the opportunity to positively affect people on a broad scale.
I thrive in collaborative environments and enjoy building great relationships across people and teams.
In my spare time I eat lots of good food, dance to good music, and pet every cat I can find.
