Richard is hispanic UX/Product designer based in California that specializes in brand solutions through research and design.
As a UX/Product Designer,
I want to design experiences that evoke a narrative so it is able to create meaningful and lasting impact. I was inspired to make a case study for Twitch because they went from being a gaming focused platform to one about self-expression and community. This narrative change allows streamers and communities to grow in forms aside from gaming.
My passion lies in exploring the psychology of design and how it influences thinking and behavior. I am to address how design can be incorporated into meaningful and intentional brand strategies that effectively connect businesses with their customers.
Video games has always been a part of my life whether that be playing games like Mario Kart 64 & Resident Evil as a kid to now playing games like Devil May Cry 5 & DBFZ. Gaming has always been there for me and it will always be there, it is one of my biggest hobbies that I will always enjoy. I always felt as though there was something to gaming more than what people perceived gaming as a whole, but as a means to tell great stories and while also having fun gameplay mechanics. Some of my favorite games include: The Last of Us Part I & II, Nier: Automata, and Final Fantasy 15. Some games that I am playing at the moment: Apex Legends and Genshin Impact.

When it comes to film, it was something I didn't fully appreciate until college. Although I watched movies for the enjoyment, I really started noticing Films when I watched it with a friend that was passionate for it and where I became enthralled in it. It led me to discover and watch more indie and international films where I can experience compelling storytelling. The films I recently enjoyed are Everything Everywhere All At Once, Asako I & II, and Ash is Purest White.
