Hi, I’m
Hi, I’m
Daniela Mata.
I studied design at ESAD in Caldas da Rainha, and I’m currently at Babel, where I’m UI/UX Lead and run a design team.
Day to day, I bring AI into the team’s work: I test it first, then I share it.
What drives me: understanding how people use things, and making them simple. AI has changed how I work. My judgement hasn’t.
What I can do.
And where I learned it.
Each skill came from a course and is now part of my everyday work.
AI fundamentals
The starting point: understanding what AI does well, and where it needs me.

I teach AI
I teach AI
to speak design.
I use AI across the whole process, from research to code. The clearest example: a Claude Skill holds a design system’s rules (colours, components, accessibility). Ask for a component and the code comes out true to the rules, first time.
1 · Ask
2 · The skill writes
3 · Result
- Already in use on client design systems, by the team, every day.
- Less friction between design and development: the rules are written once.
- Human judgement in the rules. AI just applies them.
How I work with AI.
At every stage, AI proposes. I decide.
