Saruana Martins

I’m a multifaceted professional with a background in Interaction Design, User Experience, and market research. Currently, I work on the support team at Squarespace. Beyond my professional work, I’m also a passionate visual artist and photographer.

✺✺✺ What I bring to the table

  • UX & Interaction Design

    I design intuitive flows based on user psychology. I’m fluent in Figma and prototyping.

  • 2. User & Market Research

    Years of market research taught me how to ask the right questions through surveys, interviews, and usability tests. Now I use those skills in UX research to build products that truly resonate with people.

  • Usability Testing & User Interviews

    Nothing beats watching someone use an app; those unspoken reactions (the frustration, the ‘aha!’ moments). Through interviews and usability tests, I spot issues quickly and turn insights into solutions. Research is a powerful tool for solving real problems.

  • Solving Problems

    I’m a digital detective. Give me a frustrated user, a vague error message, or a tanking conversion rate, and I won’t stop until I’ve found the reason and cracked the issue.

✺✺✺ Projects

This portfolio is currently in transition as I migrate platforms. Thank you for your patience!

While I complete my portfolio migration, I'd love to share:

Venus Bank: A financial app designed for women.

Projects in Progress: Featuring case studies and highlights from my Interaction Design studies at Dublin City University (DCU).
