Bio
Gabriel is an artist and experience designer at Adobe, having recently been selected by IxDA for for a design award for his work on Adobe Kuler for iPhone.
Gabriel has worked within the Adobe XD group since 2009. During that time he has provided design and thought leadership for numerous products and initiatives on mobile and touch devices including: Photoshop Express, Photoshop.com, Adobe Ideas, Kuler and Adobe's upcoming foray into Creative Hardware, Mighty & Napoleon.
Gabriel draws upon his eclectic and risible background in the fine arts, scenic design, engineering and illustration to create user-centered experiences in the creative arts.
In his own words: "I attended SVA and Santa Clara University respectively, but my degree is not in design. I was hired at Adobe after graduation, but not as a designer. But I have always loved solving problems and trying out new ideas. I think those two qualities helped me gravitate to UX, and always focusing on the user has helped me be successful at it."
