Hi, I’m Blanca Diaz! I am a lifelong advocate for people. I have experience designing inclusive experiences in healthcare, finance, SaaS, and e-commerce. My work spans 0→1 product launches, AI-informed UX, and accessibility-first design systems that serve millions.
At Stanford, I focused on the impact that designed spaces/art have on individuals’ perceived identities & their relationships to other communities & cultures.

Community: I come from a resilient community, East Palo Alto, that has been historically excluded from access to tech resources. That is why I founded the first free Spanish Tech Program at a non-profit in my community, StreetCode Academy. This is where I teach Python and computer literacy classes.

Growing & Improving: I am an Organizer for events in the UX community within Techqueria. Techqueria is the largest global community of Latine professionals with over 600+ UX professionals.

Dance: I choreograph and teach Bachata dance routines. When I could not find a dance team near me, I help co-found a bachata team where I instructed over 80 dancers and performed nationally.
