Summary
Ana Batista is a Director of Design with 10+ years crafting product experiences from discovery research to accessibility-audited releases, currently leading the design team at StoragePug in Barcelona. She blends a rare mix of product strategy, atomic design systems, and rapid validation techniques to turn behavioral insights into scalable component libraries and motion-driven prototypes. Her background spans game development, data-driven AI interfaces, and edtech startups, giving her a strong instinct for both creative direction and front-end implementation. A tech-savvy accessibility advocate, she pairs hands-on tooling expertise (Figma, Framer, HTML/CSS) with leadership in cross-functional teams to ship polished, usable products. Outside work she channels creativity into painting and beachside inspiration, which often informs her human-centered design approach.
