Maria Celeste Ferrari

My name is Celeste, and I am a psychologist with over 7 years of experience in the healthcare field in Spain and Argentina, with 2 years of experience specifically as a UX Researcher.

I am excited about the opportunity to join Liferay as an Associate UX Researcher and contribute to the development of user-centered experiences. Liferay's commitment to delivering innovative and impactful digital solutions aligns perfectly with my passion for understanding user needs and creating meaningful interactions.

Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of leading research teams and applying a range of methodologies to uncover valuable insights about user behaviors, preferences, and pain points. I am well-versed in conducting in-depth interviews, usability testing, and heuristic evaluations to inform the design and development of user-centric products. Additionally, my background in psychology has equipped me with a deep understanding of human behavior and the ability to empathize with users to create solutions that truly meet their needs.

I am confident that my skills in UX research, combined with my strong analytical and communication abilities, would make me a valuable asset to the Liferay team. I am eager to contribute to the company's mission of empowering businesses with innovative digital experiences that drive success and customer satisfaction.

Thank you for considering my application. I would welcome the opportunity to further discuss how my experience and skills align with the needs of Oracle in an interview.
