Marta Barrieras

Spain.

Eager to enhance the relationship between people and digital products through design and interaction, I optimize user experience and usability, while aligning with business goals.


Hello! 👋

Let me introduce myself, I'm Marta, from Barcelona but currently living and working remotely from Málaga (Spain).

Since 2010, I've been working in the design ecosystem, starting as a graphic designer and evolving into a digital profile, now as a digital product designer. My focus is on improving the relationship between people and digital products through design and interaction, optimizing the user experience and usability without losing sight of business goals.

And I absolutely love my job! 🤩

Highly accomplished Product Designer with over a decade of experience in the design ecosystem, evolving from graphic to digital product design. Specializing in optimizing user experience and usability, I consistently align design solutions with core business objectives. A resolute and proactive problem-solver, I excel at improving processes, managing multidisciplinary teams, and driving value through effective communication and cross-functional collaboration with product, sales, and development teams.
