TESTIMONIALS
Steven Monteaud
Head Of Communications at CREDDO (Quebec, Canada)
"[...] Her methodology, agility and creativity made us go a few steps further. As often, we found ourselves in a tight and stressful schedule and she still responded only with solutions and a cheerful tone. Mila is a precious and talented work partner. I couldn’t advise you to trust someone more."
I have written 2 papers on UX Research, both published by Springer and selected to be presented at the HCI International Conference in 2022 and 2023.
Olá! I'm a Brazilian designer living in Lisbon who loves exploring the interesting and beautiful things the world has to offer while spreading the energy of my country and my culture.
I'm fascinated with observing and understanding people, and their way of thinking and interacting with the world.
I work crafting comprehensive strategies to reach the business goals of the companies I work with. From the conceptual stage to the release of projects, I immerse myself in the design process, ensuring that every aspect aligns seamlessly with the intended objectives.
A key facet of my work involves demonstrating the tangible value of design and research within companies, highlighting their pivotal role in driving success. In fact, I have written two papers on UX Research, both published by Springer and selected to be presented at the HCI International Conference in 2022 and 2023.
One of my core strengths lies in finding a harmonious middle ground between the often divergent needs of stakeholders and users. This delicate balance is crucial in ensuring that projects not only meet business requirements but also resonate with and cater to the end-users effectively.
Beyond strategy and design, I actively engage with teams, leveraging my skills to help unravel complex problems and foster a collaborative atmosphere. My commitment extends to supporting the progression of projects and enhancing team efficiency, ultimately contributing to the overall success of companies.
