Design leadership that turns complexity into a roadmap teams can actually run on.

Hola! I’m Nati, Senior Director of Product Design at Salesforce.

I build and grow design teams, shape product strategy, and help organizations turn complex challenges into meaningful experiences. My work spans enterprise products, AI-powered workflows, and the people who bring them to life.

How I lead

Leadership pillars

01

Impact customers feel

Design that ships and changes how people work every day. My team's latest release met platform standards, solved requests customers had waited years for, and laid the ground for AI-first workflows.

02

I step in when it counts

My role is strategy and leadership, but when a project is urgent and pivotal, I own it. I recently spent six months as lead designer on a major transformation and set the direction the team now builds on.

03

Growing people through ownership

I give designers big, visible problems before they feel ready. Then I protect their focus so they can do the best work of their careers.

04

AI as a working tool

I prototype with AI to put working experiences in front of stakeholders sooner, so decisions happen faster. I also bring my team along as we adopt new tools and workflows.

Notes on design and leadership

I’ve loved the printed word since I was young, and writing is still where I think most clearly. Most of these pieces started as notes to help a friend or to sort out my own thinking on a topic.

Just for fun

Side projects

Building things on my own time keeps my design skills sharp beyond my day-to-day work, from idea to shipped product.

Off the clock

Outside of leading design at Salesforce, I'm raising three curious kids and keeping a small garden alive one strawberry at a time.
