Senior UI/UX Designer with 10+ years shaping accessible digital experiences for global brands and nonprofits — through strategy, research, and design that drives measurable impact.
My story
I’m Raúl Sosa, a Senior UX Designer with over a decade of experience creating accessible, user-centered digital experiences for web, mobile, and enterprise platforms.
I have a history of designing intuitive, inclusive, and impactful products for diverse clients, including major global companies (such as DP World and Graphisoft), mission-driven nonprofits, and smaller retailers. I specialize in leading UX strategy, research, prototyping, and interaction design — always with a focus on accessibility, scalability, and real-world outcomes. I believe that the best design starts with empathy and ends with a measurable impact.
My approach combines:
User research and journey mapping to discover needs
Iterative prototyping and usability testing to refine solutions
Cross-functional collaboration with product, engineering, and marketing teams
Design system creation to ensure consistency across digital ecosystems
Combining English/Spanish fluency with expertise in visual design, branding, and animation, I offer a multidisciplinary approach to UX, creating products that meet functional needs while connecting with users and business goals.
Career highlights include:
Leading a redesign that increased transport registration by 509% for DP World Posorja
Driving a 650% rise in course registrations for a healthcare client through improved UX flows
My objective, whether I’m building a design system, enhancing platform accessibility, or mentoring junior designers, remains consistent: empowering users through design.

My design philosophy
Make it usable for everyone
Everyone will face a disability at some stage—from a minor injury to the challenges of old age. We need to develop designs and solutions that promote autonomy, improve lives, and are accessible to all.
Products bring people together
Design fosters meaningful experiences and connections in our communities and those we cherish. We connect to people through fun, thought-provoking, or striking visuals to create memorable stories.
Data driven strategies
Never stop learning
Every solution is unique, so too must be our approach. Continuous learning and improvement—through refining techniques, exploring new tools, and adapting our perspectives—are essential.
