KDS Redesign

How I helped kitchens get more done, faster.

I've worked with amazing people

See how they have described what's like working with me

I’ve enjoyed working with Diego on the design of my website and broader platform business, which includes both a desktop and a mobile version. He came up to speed quickly and was able to start producing draft design outputs right away. Throughout the process, he has been focused and responsive. He has brought a good “design eye” to the work and pushed back where appropriate, both on the design and on the scope of the MVP version of the product. Overall, I am very pleased with how the work is coming out.

I've enjoyed working with Diego on our design project and look forward to working with him on projects in the future. The designs Diego created were excellent! I've seen a lot of design work but Diego's design skills and methodology definitely stands above the rest.  Not only is Diego excellent with design, but he's also skilled in regards to time management and has excellent customer/client facing communication skills. I would definitely recommend working with Diego to anyone looking for an experienced leader in design for your next project.

I truly believe Diego's experience possesses a whole new level of creativity, uniqueness, and passion. In my company, everyone is amazed by his work and professional skills. He has a singular ability to walk you through his designs and processes which such clarity of explanation that sometimes makes you believe you are a designer just like him.
Nathalia Rueda
IT Recruiter @NativApps
Our KDS changed incredibly with Diego's help. From the beginning, he diagnosed the obstacles that we were putting our chefs on, and managed to turn everything around to leave us with a much more agile, simple and efficient interface. We managed to increase delivery times and reduce errors immediately. Very happy with his work.
Edwin Pérez
CEO @BigBites
I love Diego's ability to deliver fast and transform ideas into bright designs. His right attitude is one of many things to highlight when it comes to working with him.
Paula Avellaneda
Product Manager @DRUO
When I hired Diego, I knew he was a world-class designer and his past and present work is a case in point. He was able to successfully deliver the slick product we envisioned for so long in a little over a month. If you are building something truly awesome, Diego can do the heavy lifting with little or no input.

Diego has such a neat and excellent portfolio that made my decision very easy. He understood my concept, contributed his experience, advised me and made me feel very confident about what I needed. He is a patient, calm and flexible person who really listens to the client and he designed my wishes precisely. I recommend him 100%, it was a dream to work with him.
Genesis Morales

Diego is one of a kind when it comes to his design mind. We are lucky to have him as our lead product guy because in truth he is so well rounded that he can work on mobile-web, desktop-web, mobile apps (both ios and android), admin portal, email templates etc I can go on. You normally don't find designers who can delievery quality work across this range consistenly. Thanks for being part of this team"

Daniel Martin

Limitless creative mind is the phrase that comes to mind when I think about Diego. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Diego for 3 years, during which we built together great digital products. Above all, I was impressed with Diego’s ability to make eye-catching designs out of nothing. And, of course, his high commitment. Diego would be a true asset for any positions requiring creative skills and comes with my heartfelt recommendation.
Farid Delgado

A design strategist that always focus on user needs, I would work with him again without hesitation.

FAQ

What is your work discipline?

I aim for results. Always. I work hands on with your team and integrate into your workflow to create, polish and iterate your digital products and services.

What is your design process?

I need to understand your business and objectives. After I know where you want to go, I do my best to combine your users' needs and business' goals into the designs, that way we make sure you are satisfying your customers and your business is being profitable while doing so.

I typically work either with Founders and C-level people or project managers depending on the size of the company. Comfortable with speaking to end clients/users as well.

What is your timezone?

I can overlap most of my  working hours with EST, CT and PST. As far as Europe, Asia and Australia, we need to find the best way to collaborate and sync aiming for results.

How often can we meet?

As often as we see fit. I am always available over Slack or your tool of choice. However, unceasing meetings won't make the work any better or faster. I strongly believe and appreciate autonomy and love working with people that give me space and freedom to work and actually take some time to come up with solutions for the design challenges we are facing.

What software do you use?

I have been using Adobe XD and Figma for most of my projects. I have also work with Miro and Whimsicall for exploration and ideation processes.
