Hey there! I’m Berni
A strategic designer, entrepreneur, and curious explorer of complex systems with 7+ years of experience in UX, service design, and business strategy. Originally from Chile, I moved to New York to pursue my Master’s at Parsons, and I’m now Co-founder and COO of OjaLab. I thrive at the intersection of creativity, strategy, and leadership, and am known for my motivation, energy, and ability to multitask.
Driven by a deep curiosity about human behavior and the systems that shape our world, I’m passionate about designing meaningful services that connect people and create sustainable impact.
I’m always up for a new challenge— For me, design is more than just a tool—it’s a way of thinking that unlocks transformative change, and I’m committed to applying it wherever I go.

What I believe in
Success isn’t achieved alone. The best ideas come from diverse minds working together, challenging each other, and learning from every experience.
O1. Collaboration is Key
O2. Failure as a Teacher
If you don’t fail, you don’t learn. Every mistake offers a valuable lesson that can shape future success. I embrace failure as an opportunity to grow, adapt, and improve.
O3. Embrace the Unknown
I’m a firm believer in stepping outside of comfort zones and embracing uncertainty. Exploring the unknown is where the magic happens—whether in design, business, or life.
O4.User-Centric Approac
Design must serve people and the greater good. A user-centered mindset not only drives innovation but also ensures that solutions are meaningful, relevant, and empower those they are designed for.
