shiara arauzo. design engineer. i design and build tactile, interactive 3d interfaces — and ship them as real, measurable products. to me, design and engineering aren't two jobs; they're one. i sketch in code. i prototype in the real material. the browser is my canvas, the cursor my pencil. based in lima, peru. currently crafting at valere. before that, three years at scotiabank, designing digital banking for millions across the region. i believe the web can be physical — that motion, depth and direct manipulation are how people learn to trust a screen. that a project isn't finished until there's a number on it: six times faster, seventy-eight percent more trust, forty percent less time. i build in the open, with others. founder of sheships, connecting women who build across latin america. co-founder of crafter station, a home for indie makers. i research civic technology and open government, because access is a design problem too. i care about craft, clarity, and shipping things that matter. some days that means shaders; some days, user interviews. let's build something good. and then, let's build the next thing. shiara arauzo. design engineer. i design and build tactile, interactive 3d interfaces — and ship them as real, measurable products. to me, design and engineering aren't two jobs; they're one. i sketch in code. i prototype in the real material. the browser is my canvas, the cursor my pencil. based in lima, peru. currently crafting at valere. before that, three years at scotiabank, designing digital banking for millions across the region. i believe the web can be physical — that motion, depth and direct manipulation are how people learn to trust a screen. that a project isn't finished until there's a number on it: six times faster, seventy-eight percent more trust, forty percent less time. i build in the open, with others. founder of sheships, connecting women who build across latin america. co-founder of crafter station, a home for indie makers. i research civic technology and open government, because access is a design problem too. i care about craft, clarity, and shipping things that matter. some days that means shaders; some days, user interviews. let's build something good. and then, let's build the next thing.
