A seasoned professional and entrepreneur with over 20 years of experience building ventures, leading design teams, and turning digital projects into reality.

Hi, my name is Juan Tejeda.
I am a design manager and leader

Just like any other discipline, designers need leaders that will inspire them and help them develop professionally. After a long career in design, it is my duty to help young professionals to achieve the highest potential in their careers and get to the next level through guidance, coaching, challenges, and giving them a sense of purpose.

For the past 20 plus years, I have been a consultant and practitioner of Business Design, Design Thinking, User Experience Design, and Creative Direction for large and medium-sized companies, winning awards and acquiring valuable experience working in international markets such as New York, Hamburg, Amsterdam, London, Barcelona, Santo Domingo, Copenhagen, Oslo, Shanghai, Madrid, Stockholm, Berlin, and Munich.

  • Providing guidance and coaching to younger designers to further their professional development and help them achieve the next level in their careers
