About
I'm Aranzazu (pronounced aron-za-zoo), a graduate of UC Santa Barbara with a BA in Anthropology. During my time at Santa Barbara City College, I discovered my passion for design, initially thrown into the world of creativity, but quickly finding my footing and falling in love with it.
Then, I continued my educational journey as a student in the UC Berkeley UX/UI Program, driven by my desire to continuously learn and expand my skills.
My current focus lies in designing for human connection and social impact. I find joy in bringing people's visions to life through interactive, emotive, and imaginative interfaces that are purposeful and intentional.
