Teresa Mira

Hello

 

I'm a seasoned designer with a passion for translating ideas into tangible products. I offer a unique perspective built-up from over a decade of experience and a diverse design background.

As a hands-on freelance designer, I appreciate the challenge of working with early stage companies. I work across the end-to-end design process, to create products that deliver on customer needs and generate business value. I believe impactful design blends function and delight, and I take pride in the process of achieving it.

Before venturing as a solo designer, I worked with incredible teams around the world on a variety of product-services for ambitious organisations. My work experience ranges from design agencies and consultancies like Native, Designit and Manyone, to startups like the hyper-growth fintech Wise. I’ve worked in Amsterdam, New York, London and Lisbon.

Available for remote-friendly contract roles.
