Design is personal. So here’s the personal side:

My name is Anais Olivar, I’m a product designer based in Mexico City.

With a background in Animation and Digital Art, I bring storytelling, systems thinking, and visual craftsmanship into every project. Currently, I design internal tools that empower people to work smarter, faster, and with more confidence.

I shine when I add motion and depth to designs, creating experiences that truly engage and inspire.

I design with empathy, connecting to users' experiences as they live them, to create solutions that truly resonate.
I love spending too much time reading about dragons and calculating my ideal intake of protein.

Personas, journey maps, problem statements

I like to be proactive and initiate discovery even when the direction is unclear

I value solo deep work + strategic syncs

I synthesize insights into clear opportunities, mapping journeys, pain points, and success criteria.

Design

I explore, prototype, and refine through iterative design, balancing user needs with technical realities.
