Estie CarrilloDesigner
I’ve been designing professionally since 2011. I was born in Colombia on a Saturday. Driven by a deep love for design, I moved to London that same year.
I’ve worked at companies of all sizes, from Meta to start-ups as founding designer, hiring and leading design teams that drove real business impact.
Apps shipped in 2026
These apps were designed and built by me, using SwiftUI and agentic coding.
