With 15 years of experience spanning brand and product design at companies of all sizes, I bring both depth and versatility to my work. I grew up in Boise, Idaho, and graduated from Boise State University with a Fine Arts Degree in Graphic Design. Outside of work, I enjoy exploring the outdoors, indulging in my favorite foods, and spending quality time with friends and family.
Currently, a Senior Product Designer at Artisan Studios, focusing on a platform that streamlines supply chain processes, including orders and inventory management. Prior to this, I worked at EETech in the technology and electronics industry, where I developed several digital SaaS and B2B/B2C products. A career highlight was leading the integration of a marketplace for a $3.5 billion client, which boosted their sales revenue by $4.6 million within two years.

“One of the best design collaborators”
Amaya proved to be talented, creative, strategic, inquisitive, and hard working. I’ve seen her become a better UX/UI and web designer.
She is able to lead research efforts, develop personas, wireframe complex solutions, conduct user testing, etc. Amaya is someone who understands the business needs as well as the needs of the user and knows how to translate that into a successful and creative solution. She truly is a senior level practitioner of her discipline and a great designer.”
