Hi, I'm Luisa Barrera León 

Driven by a passion for solving complex challenges, I have built a versatile career at the intersection of high-level research and real-world application.

My expertise centers on UI/UX, ranging from dynamic interface adaptation and User-Centered Design to advanced Visual Perception (Saliency Prediction) and Cognition Prototyping. Throughout my three academic degrees, I have validated my theories through rigorous Usability Evaluation and Eye-Tracking processes, developing a natural talent for transforming existing interfaces into highly intuitive experiences with strategic, data-backed enhancements.

My experience in high-impact sectors like Health-Tech, Fintech, and EdTech has honed my ability to structure Functional Requirements and consult directly with stakeholders, quickly deconstructing new business contexts to deliver precise technical specifications. Additionally, participating in research initiatives alongside industry partners has equipped me with the cultural and technical agility to collaborate effectively with diverse, cross-functional teams across international borders.

Furthermore, my analytical background allows me to bridge the gap between human visual perception and statistical Data Analysis. By understanding how the brain interprets information, I design visualizations and dashboards that translate complex datasets into clear, actionable results. Through my various research projects, I have gained extensive experience in the end-to-end data lifecycle—cleaning, analyzing, and reporting findings to ensure data integrity and evidence-based results.

My decade of experience as a researcher and university instructor has forged a unique profile: I am not just a specialist in one tool, but a rapid, lifelong learner with the proven agility to master any technology and excel in any of these three professional roles.
