Bio
Aida Nogués
I cannot recommend Ellie highly enough as a UX/UI Designer. During the year we spent together I saw exceptional progress on all the skills required to be a great product designer. She has an organized and analytic mind that allows her to solve any type of problem with creative and detailed solutions, putting a lot of attention on strategy but also on the visuals, the design system and pixel-perfect designs. Her skills, her kindness and her great communication will be key for any design team.
