RELATIONAL INTELLIGENCE

Stakeholder and client relationships. My consultancy work is focused on rigorous alignment of the problem at hand and the user outcomes we expect in the projects in order to drive decisions for products and services.

RELATIONAL INTELLIGENCE

SPEED THROUGH CLARITY

Resolve ambiguity early (with the use of varoious artifacts or design devices) so teams can move fast with steady decision making.

CONCEPTUAL SCAFFOLDING

I help build the architecture for the design. Decision trees, service blueprints, semantic hierarchies. Structure as strategy before AI or high fidelity design.

CLIENTS FEEDBACK

Nicolás has a rare ability to bring structure to chaos. Working with him on Momenta's platform design helped us untangle user flows we'd been stuck on for weeks, not because he came with ready-made answers, but because of how he thinks through problems.
