▌ PLAYER PROFILE

Two decades, one evolving designer.

I'm Mario Mora
P1 · MEDELLÍN

I'm a Product & Experience Builder with 20+ years shaping digital products — from concept to shipped experience. Since 2005 I've moved fluidly across visual design, frontend, UX research, service design and product design, leading teams, developers and suppliers along the way.

I specialize in self-service experiences for large-scale B2B and mass-market clients, turning research into clear decisions. I still reach for pencils, markers and post-its before pixels — a simple, research-driven craft that keeps teams aligned and users at the center.

▌ 05 — SIDE QUESTS

Beyond the pixels

The best experiences are built by humans who live them. When I'm not shipping products, you'll find me here.

  • Cycling & MTB

    Climbing Antioquia's mountains on two wheels — road and trail. Endurance training for long design projects.

  • Board games

    Strategy, mechanics and player experience — every game night is a systems-design masterclass.

  • Cooking

    Recipes are just service blueprints you can eat. Prototyping flavors for family and friends.

  • Music

    Always playing — from salsa to synthwave. The soundtrack behind every sketch and sprint.
