Diego Perez

Hello!

I'm Diego Pérez, a UX/UI designer and product strategist who takes ideas to product-market fit and scales products from sunny Valencia. For 16 years, I've been turning ideas into funded and acquisition-ready products.

I've led over 200 projects, helped founders raise $60M and generate $44M in exits, designed the internal SaaS for a $25B global giant, and worked on products with 12M users.

Outside of work, you'll find me perfecting an aquascape, hunting for rare Belgian food and beers in local markets, dreaming of an off-grid self-sufficient life, playing absurdly complex video games, or losing board games to my five-year-old daughter.
