About

Hi, I'm Shiara — a design engineer from Lima. For about four years I was a product designer, handing my work off to be built, until I couldn't stand the gap between the design and the real thing. So I taught myself to build it, and I haven't looked back.

I'm happiest in the seam between design and engineering: 3D and WebGL, motion, the tiny interactions no one's meant to notice — and the unglamorous full-stack plumbing that turns an idea into something you can actually touch. I've redesigned cross-border payments, built an AI tool that reads high-stakes financial contracts, and helped rebuild how a whole country reads its own laws.

But the thing I love most is making for the joy of it, and doing it around other people — so I build community wherever I go.
