Hi !
I'm Yael
I am a Product Designer and Illustrator, born in Israel and currently living in Barcelona, Spain.
I have graduated with honors from HIT Holon institute of Technology , Israel, acquiring a B.A. in Industrial Design. In the past year I have expanded my education to the digital world of UX UI, and I am currently looking for my next opportunity as a Product Designer.
When designing a product, I like to explore the relationships between the product and its cultural and semantic context to create a joyful using experience.
I believe in multidisciplinary approach, where each field of design and creative expression enriches and supports the sum of the design work, leading to the discovery of each product's essence.
