SELECTED PROJECTS
UNIVERSIDAD DE COSTA RICA
I transformed the UCR website into a modern, student-first platform, with clearer navigation students now complete tasks 35% faster and bounce rates dropped by 20%.
The site was built with intuition in mind, in order to make the student's experience more welcoming and easier. The redesign directly solved student frustrations with messy layouts, hidden resources and no tool integration. Key information like calendars, services, and campus news is now 20% easier to access.
KIBINA ®
Redesigned Kibina’s website with cleaner visuals and a refined structure to position Costa Rica’s leading marketing agency for growth. By clarifying the layout and highlighting inquiry paths, users now find services faster and calendar booking schedules increased by an estimated 35%.
I solved the common barriers users faced — unclear calls to action and buried contact options, by putting inquiry buttons and service highlights front and center. Now clients can connect effortlessly, which makes client expansion smoother and more focused on building trust and driving sales.
ESSENTIAL COSTA RICA ®
I designed dynamic ads for Essential Costa Rica that adapt in real time to user interests. This data-driven approach estimates a boost in ad engagement by 30% turning curiosity into real tourism.
By focusing on personalization and clarity, with distribution automated — the result: a smarter campaign that drives higher conversions and maximizes return on investment.
