Designing digital experiences that connect clarity, emotion, and purpose.
Memorable. Empathetic. Desirable. Surprising.

I’m Aline Machado, a UX/UI designer shaped by visual arts, communication, and the belief that stories can change how we understand the world. My work is rooted in empathy, responsibility, and clarity, values I’ve carried through years of creating for communities, political movements, education, and social impact initiatives.
I’m drawn to challenges that ask for both heart and structure. I love taking what feels overwhelming or complex and gently transforming it into something intuitive, warm, and genuinely helpful. To me, good design isn’t just functional, it’s a quiet companion that supports people, respects their time, and makes them feel considered.
Every project I take on is an opportunity to listen deeply, learn quickly, and build with integrity. I care about improving lives in tangible ways, crafting digital experiences that feel human, and shaping solutions that make people think: someone designed this with me in mind.
If you want a designer who leads with curiosity, clarity, and compassion: that’s who I am, and that’s the work I love to do.
