Pax is an integrative thinker who believes understanding people is key to designing delightful experiences. She has a background in non-profits, social entrepreneurship, multicultural communication, and project management. Pax focuses on making the world a better place by tackling problems with a multi-disciplinary approach rooted in empathy and belonging.
She holds her Bachelors of Anthropology/Sociology, Politics, and International Relations from Florida International University, and Master of International Relations from American University. Prior to her work in Anthro-Tech, Pax led a national project to explore how Latinx young adults find meaning. This work inspired her to focus her career on human-centered design with organizations that have a social mission, both in her native Colombia and in the U.S.
When she's not working, Pax enjoys spending time with her husband and dogs exploring the Pacific Northwest. As a lifelong learner, you can often find her reading about new topics, trying new recipes from all over the world, or finding new ways to be creative.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I actually know... and how much I have yet to learn!
