Hello

I am Manuel Escobedo, Product Designer.
My favorite phrase:
"Simple things should be simple complex things shpuld be possible."
Alan Kay.
About me:
I am a Senior Product Designer with over 10 years of experience at the intersection of AI design, systems design, and organizational transformation, at Microsoft and Accenture.
At Microsoft, I was responsible for the design of Viva Insights and launched features within the Copilot ecosystem, working closely with engineering and data science in the emerging era of AI agents.
At Accenture I led end-to-end design for different industries and was part of the Innovation Lab working with applied AI solutions such as ML, Computer vision, AR among others.
I specialize in user-centered design and combine data-driven validation with strategic thinking, and I have also mentored designers and championed design in environments without natural representation for the discipline.
Today I focus that knowledge —AI, strategic design and design systems— on the fintech ecosystem in the US and Mexico.
