Hello,
I’m Dama!
I’m a product designer based in Amsterdam with a passion for creating intuitive, impactful experiences.
Born in Santiago, Chile, I come from a multicultural background, which has shaped the way I approach design—balancing different perspectives, needs, and contexts to craft thoughtful solutions.
Out of office
When I’m not designing, you can find me...
Playing video games, my fave are story-based
Travelling, last year I celebrated my birthday in Greece with all my friends
Baking or cooking, it’s where I can zone out and test new flavours
My superpowers
User research
I specialise in uncovering users' pain points, motivations, and behaviours to create meaningful, impactful solutions. I enjoy one-on-one interviews, where in-depth conversations reveal genuine user needs and challenges.
Ideation
Whether refining an existing concept or brainstorming from scratch, I love exploring innovative solutions that push boundaries. I specialise in collaboration, bringing everyone along in the journey.
Data-driven decisions
I thrive on turning insights into action, ensuring that design choices are backed by research. I love results—whether positive or negative—as they provide valuable insights that inform and improve future projects.
Balancing business, design & engineering
I aim to bridge the gap between stakeholders.
I focus on fostering cross-functional collaboration to create solutions that are user-centric, technically feasible, and aligned with business objectives.
