Experience

Hi, I'm Valeria, an industrial designer with a lot of experience in coming up with and developing innovative ideas for products. I use Computer-Aided Design (CAD) programs to bring my ideas to life accurately. Throughout my career, I've perfected my ability to take ideas from the start to the finished product. I care about how a design looks as much as how it functions, making sure it's not just visually appealing but also practical and efficient. I don't just think about ideas; I also understand how things are made. I know about industrial machinery and techniques, allowing me to not only imagine innovative products but also turn those ideas into real products that meet quality standards. In summary, as an industrial designer, I cover everything from creative ideas to practical creation, standing out for my ability to blend the aesthetic with the functional. Additionally, I have experience managing processes, using computer-aided design programs, and understanding industrial machinery.​

Project "U-MANOS"

This project tackled the issue of increasing individualism among students and how it affected their relationships with others. That's where U-MANOS came in a wearable device that measured signals from the body and translated them into emotions displayed through LED lights. This way, people around the user could understand some of their feelings even if they didn't talk directly with that person.
