Product Design
Research, synthesis, interaction design, prototyping, and design systems across complex digital products.
HELLO
I'm a Product Designer living and adventuring in the countryside of SĂŁo Paulo, Brazil.
A little bit about me
I've been a designer for 14 years, transitioning into the digital world seven years ago. Throughout my career, I've worked with major companies across diverse industries and I am currently a Senior Product Designer open to new opportunities.
What drives me most is the ability to streamline processes and craft meaningful experiences through functional, visually compelling interfaces. I thrive on bridging strategy and execution, collaborating closely with cross-functional teams to turn complex challenges into intuitive solutions — always with a strong focus on business impact and user needs.

What they say
“Karyn is the typical designer who genuinely cares about the user. Her work is guided by real needs and oriented to the final user, with latent concern in delivering the best real experience and impact. She conducts tests, surveys, interviews, dynamics, raises and brings a lot of inputs for the team and uses them as a basis for her product decisions.”
Design Manager at Nilo
“Karyn's work is extremely well documented. You can look at the Figma file she creates and knowing exactly what happens in each situation. Each flows is very well described.”
Senior Software Engineer at Nilo
“She showed a lot of interest in the Compass, a large and complex project. She was not afraid to face it head-on and organize complex co-creation sessions.”
