Who am I
Born in August 1986 in Lisbon Portugal, a girl named Tânia Rodrigues dos Santos, a free soul who loves to use nature in order to discover more about herself. I feel complete when I pick a backpack and travel to discover other cultures. It’s a way to learn more about other people and experiencing new ways of life. Can I say this is a way to learn more about myself? I'm pretty sure about that.
More than just living, I want quality of life, so studying about different subjects as what we can change in our meals to see the difference in our daily routine is a goal. I enjoy daily pilates, aero yoga and love to play with my kids… oh I can’t forget to tell that discovering some old furniture to restore makes my day. I love to imagine new options to recreate it.
We have one mouth and two ears so, more than just talk, it is important to listen. This inspires me in discovering solutions that respect people’s needs is my main principle. When I got my Master degree in Architecture and urban planning (2010) I made my solution based on user research. This way of thinking makes me grow not only as a professional but as well as human being.
As a creative, since 2004 I have explored different transformations with obsolete objects collected from the garbage, giving them new functions. With these experiences the users are encouraged to think about the objects.
Back in 2018, I made a change in my life deciding to specialize myself in user experience for the digital world. To grow is necessary change and I made things happen.
