Get to Know Me

Hello, my name is Raul! 👋

I'm a UI/UX designer with a unique journey—from competitive swimming in college while pursuing a bachelor's degree to Coast Guard service. Each step taught me resilience, teamwork, and the importance of understanding people.

I honed my communication and collaboration skills in the Coast Guard. When I was ready for a fresh challenge, I discovered UI/UX, a field where creativity and empathy come together.

For me, design isn't just about visuals; it's about creating authentic connections and impact. Let's work together to bring your vision to life.
