ABOUT
MISSION
I create inspiring human-centered product designs because I believe if people have the best products that simply work, they spend less time on the learning curve of understanding it, and have more time to actually enjoy the product improving their lives.
VISION
I envision a world where everything is connected by the means of design, making it accessible to everyone. I will accomplish this by helping businesses develop their hardware and software products to support their users’ everyday lives.
FOUNDER
I'm a Product Design Engineer based in Houston, Texas, and the founder of Luana Ram Design, LLC (LRD).
As one of the first Product Design Engineers in the Greater Houston area, my distinctive background has demonstrated success in product designs for medical devices, household goods, beauty products, consumer electronics, as well as graphic user interfaces in web and mobile applications.
My focused approach on user-centered design during the creation process of products takes people and culture into consideration first in order to implement designs. The results are everyday products that users can connect with on an emotional level.
I enjoy working with everyone from entrepreneurs to executives, startups, and companies who have challenging concepts, which I can then help turn into reality.
