I'm Mariana Pedroza and I design. I'm building AstroPay brand. In the past I co-founded Together and Humankind and also early team member at Lummi. Formerly Discipline Manager at BBVA and co-host of Design Wednesday podcast. I began working with AI 8 years ago when I led the design team at Gus Chat (acquired by blip) and lectured at Tec de Monterrey. I've won the Red Dot Design Award twice, manage Friends of Figma CDMX, give talks globally, and create art through various mediums.
All of this was possible thanks to the awesome teams and mentors I've collaborated with. Check out some of our work below.
