About Me

A quick look at who I am and how I like to work.

Portrait of Mira Sandoval

I design and build digital products that feel effortless.

For close to a decade I've moved between design files and code editors — sketching flows in the morning, shipping them in the afternoon. That overlap is where I do my best work.

Away from the screen I'm usually cycling along the river, hunting down secondhand design books, or perfecting my pour-over.

How I Can Help

From first sketch to launch day — and beyond.

Brand & identity

Marks, type choices, and visual rules that keep a brand recognisable everywhere it shows up.

Interface design

Screens and flows designed around real tasks, tested early and refined until they disappear.

Front-end builds

Hand-coded, accessible front-ends that stay fast on slow connections and old phones alike.

Responsive design

Layouts that adapt gracefully from a wall-sized display down to the smallest handset.

Site audits

A close read of your existing product with a prioritised, plain-language list of fixes.

Launch support

Steady hands for release week — QA passes, polish sprints, and post-launch tweaks.

Kind Words

What the people I've worked with have to say.

Mira reworked our onboarding in three weeks and support tickets dropped almost immediately. She asks the questions nobody else thinks to ask.
Inès Fournier COO, Fieldnote
Rare to find someone who sweats the pixels and writes production-ready code. We handed over a mess and got back a product.
Tomás Vieira Founder, Harbourlight
Every review felt like a working session, not a presentation. The final site is quicker, clearer, and finally feels like us.
Greta Lindqvist Brand Lead, Mosaik
Deadlines held, scope stayed honest, and the handoff documentation was the best our team has ever received.
Daniel Okafor PM, Northbeam Labs
Our conversion rate climbed within a month of the redesign going live. I stopped counting the compliments.
Yuki Tanabe CEO, Papercrane
