Alberto Gonzalez

I'm Alberto. I've been designing for about 14 years now, and today I lead the design team at Blossom, a fintech powering credit unions.

I've been into design since I was a kid, I just didn't know. My grandpa collected Popular Mechanics and I was always amazed at them. Then computers came along and I started to create things just because I enjoyed it. When I found out you could build a career around it, I was in.

I've designed brands, done photography, video editing, whatever comes to mind. But product design is what kept pulling me back. Today I'm still learning and trying to be a better product designer.
