DESIGNER, MENTOR, & PROBLEM SOLVER
I'm Antonio Flamenco, a passionate user experience designer located in the heart of the silicon valley, currently working at Salesforce. Some things to know about me are that I love intelligent design, organization, storytelling and effective communication. I enjoy tackling any design problem, however complex or simple, and trying to understand the ‘why and how’ behind them in order to devise the best solution I can. It has been this love for problem solving that has pushed me to become the designer I am today and continues to give me so much excitement about what I do.
When I'm not designing, I'm usually out and about with friends or simply exploring the world around me. I'm a design mentor, long distance runner, 80's movie lover and life long learner.
