About Me

Hi! I'm Julia

A former lawyer turned designer who’s passionate about creating digital experiences that actually make sense to people.

My journey into design kicked off with a bang: I won first place at the “Hackathon Amazônia que eu quero,” sponsored by the federal and state governments of Amazonas.

Shortly after, I dove into the UX/UI world working at an ERP company in the countryside of São Paulo.

In 2024, I moved to the Netherlands with my husband (and our two cats, Jorel and Osíris 🐾), and since then, I’ve been exploring new ways to apply my skills in UX, web design, and content strategy.

In the Netherlands

Here in Amsterdam, I started offering simple website design services for local entrepreneurs. 

On the side, I manage a YouTube channel — I write the scripts, edit the videos, create thumbnails, plan content, optimize with SEO, and take care of our Instagram posts too.

I love blending creativity with strategy, whether I’m designing in Figma, editing in Capcut, or organizing ideas in Notion.

At the moment, I work at PostNL while learning Dutch (almost wrapping up A1!) and looking for creative opportunities where I can grow, experiment, and contribute — in UX/UI, web design, or content strategy.
