Software Developer UX/UI Designer

I’ve spent eight years working across design and web development. I can join a team to solve a specific need or take part in the entire process, collaborating closely and making sure the result is useful, solid, and well built.

WORK

A selection of professional and personal projects that shows how I approach different needs: understanding the context, organizing the experience, and building a solution that works. For each project, I explain the challenge, my role, and the decisions that guided the work.

Personal projects

CAPABILITIES

How I can
help

I can step in for a specific phase or combine design and development when the project needs continuity between experience decisions and implementation.

A

UX/UI and experience improvement

I analyze journeys, forms, and processes to find where the experience can be made clearer. I work on content structure, flows, wireframes, improvement proposals, and high-fidelity interfaces.

  • Research
  • Flow architecture
  • Wireframes
  • Visual systems
B

Web development and platforms

I build web interfaces and applications with JavaScript, React, Astro, and Next.js, with close attention to structure, responsive behavior, and connections to data or services.

  • Front-end from Figma
  • Web applications
  • APIs
  • Interactive components
C

WordPress and custom development

I build and maintain corporate websites, online stores, and custom features, making sure the result is editable, clear, and right for the project’s needs. I also build stores on PrestaShop.

  • Elementor Pro
  • Gravity Forms
  • Headless
  • E-commerce

I can help with UX/UI, web development and platforms, WordPress, headless projects, or a combination of design and development, depending on what your project needs.

PROCESS

How I
work

Every project starts with understanding what’s behind the request. Before building anything, I try to learn about the context, the business, the people who’ll use it, and the specific need to be solved.

  1. 01

    Understand

    I ask questions, review the information available, and try to separate the real need from the first idea of how to implement it.

  2. 02

    Align on scope

    Together, we turn that understanding into priorities, deliverables, dependencies, open decisions, and what’s out of scope.

  3. 03

    Propose

    I present alternatives when it makes sense, explain my decisions, and point out the trade-offs of each option.

  4. 04

    Design and build

    I build the solution in stages, keeping the focus on priorities and reviewing structure, behavior, and details.

  5. 05

    Review and deliver

    We review what was built against the scope, and I leave the documentation and context needed to keep the work going.

“I understand the context, align the scope, propose with sound judgment, and design or build in stages.”

ABOUT ME

I’m Daniel.

I’m a software developer and UX/UI designer. I like to start by understanding what a person, a team, or a business needs, and then turn it into a clear experience and a well-built solution.

I’ve spent eight years learning and working across design and web development. I started out building pages from scratch with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and PHP, without frameworks. Then I moved on to building custom WordPress sites and, over time, to working with React, Next.js, Astro, and modern architectures.

Today I also build with the help of AI, drawing on that technical foundation to understand every solution, review the code, and make sure the result is useful and maintainable.

DESIGN UX/UI design and interface prototyping. Experience with Figma, Adobe XD, Illustrator, and Photoshop, plus Adobe Premiere for video editing.DEVELOPMENT Responsive interfaces with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and React, as well as Next.js and Astro. PHP, MySQL, and REST APIs. Advanced WordPress with Elementor Pro, ACF, CPT, and WooCommerce; custom features.SUPPORT Hosting and domains. Technical SEO: speed, semantic HTML, and metadata. Measurement with Analytics, Search Console, and Tag Manager.

APPLIED AI

Human direction.
AI as a tool.

I use AI models as part of an engineering process, not as a substitute for understanding the problem or for technical judgment. AI helps me research, explore alternatives, and write and review code, but the important decisions are still human-led.
