bio
Tigo Ponce de León is a product design engineer from Portland, Oregon. He now resides in the Midwest, studying Media Arts & Design and Computer Science at the University of Chicago, where he’ll graduate in Spring 2027.
He believes that software should be both useful and pleasurable and that all design decisions should act in service of that fundamental aspiration. He also considers artificial intelligence as the defining technology of this age and is eager to contribute to its evolution over the coming years.
When not busy designing prototypes in Figma or translating ideas to code, you can find him going on bike rides along Lake Michigan, watching Real Madrid matches, or hanging out with friends.
