About

I work alongside founders and product teams to turn bold ideas into effective, user-friendly products through rapid design and prototyping. From concept to handoff, my focus is on simplicity and speed—ensuring each product not only meets but exceeds expectations. Currently designing privacy-first mobile experiences at Cape (TIME's Best Inventions 2025). Previously led design efforts at Fabric (healthcare SaaS, $60M Series A), Function Health (a16z-backed), and Aplazo (Mexico's first BNPL platform). → santiagoalonso.com
