Hi, I'm Shayla

I’m a Colombian product designer who loves the messy middle of building things.
I work with startups at different stages: sometimes that’s shaping the first version of a product, sometimes it’s untangling something that grew faster than it was designed to. Either way, I’m usually the person asking “but what does the user actually need here?”
I’m based in Bogotá, working with teams across time zones, and I’m always up for problems that don’t have an obvious answer yet.

Right now...
I am growing obsession with how AI is changing the way products are built and experienced. I like working on things that are genuinely useful, and I like making them look good too.
Lately I’ve been vibe coding my own e-commerce platform for Latin communities, powered by Claude Code and way too much coffee.
