Hi there! My name is Andres, and I currently work as a Product Owner at Coursedog: an integrated academic operations Platform for higher ed that supports integrated academic and event scheduling, course demand projections, curriculum management, and online catalog solutions. I work on the Scheduling Cloud where I focus on collaborating with the engineering, product, and design teams to build and iterate on features related to academic and event scheduling for our clients. Before this, I worked as an English Learning Assistant in Southern Spain and a Product Designer & Researcher Intern at TechnologyAdvice.

I graduated from Tufts University with my M.S. in Human Factors Engineering and B.S. in Engineering Psychology. During this time, I specialized in learning about user research, user-centered design, product management, and more. As an undergraduate student, I was incredibly interested in learning about how we build products and experiences that truly prioritize the user. This passion led me to complete projects related to healthcare, transportation, retail, and gaming that simultaneously developed my foundation in research and design. Additionally, I knew I wanted to further my understanding of these topics which led me to stay at Tufts to pursue graduate studies.

When I’m not learning more about users and designing new experiences, you can catch me working out, playing my Switch or PS5 (currently playing: Hades 2), hiking, cooking, or traveling. If you’re interested in working together or chatting about any of these topics and more, please reach out to me at andresrantonio@gmail.com or on LinkedIn!
