Summary
Danita Delce is a UX design and strategy advisor with 11 years of experience turning complex systems into intuitive, user-centered products. Based in Austin, she advises startups and CEOs (currently at Streetstop) while running Designer Abroad, helping founders scale from one-to-many across consumer, enterprise, and government projects. Her background blends human-computer interaction (Carnegie Mellon) with visual communication and practical product work, from accessibility-first government tools to rapid web3 product cycles. She pairs hands-on research and prototyping with measurable impact—building a Tailwind-based design system that cut implementation time by 60% and leading ARIA/WCAG compliance that improved accessibility ahead of GDPR. A mentor and community builder (co-director of UXPA Austin mentorship, Springboard mentor), she also experiments with generative AI to improve storytelling and creative workflows. Practical, cross-disciplinary, and empathetic, she thrives where design, strategy, and fast iteration meet.
