About

Product designer with a fine‑art background.

I'm Paul. At CarExpert I own the design system and lead new features from research to release.

Lately I also build and guide AI agents, connected to the tools a team already uses, and automate the repetitive parts. Always learning.

Before product design I was a storyboard artist in Bogotá, drawing animated series for television. That is where my eye comes from.
