With over 20 years in UX/UI and design strategy, Carlos has learned that real creativity doesn’t thrive in rigid plans or endless office hours. The name Mañana.Today was born from that realization. He discovered he was happiest when he stopped postponing life for “later” and started designing for freedom, now.

Many speak about using AI responsibly. And Carlos agrees. For him, it also means making AI genuinely useful. He has integrated it into every stage of product design, using automation and smart workflows to cut repetition, speed up complex tasks, and deliver high-quality results in half the time.

Mañana.Today isn’t just about speed. It’s about living and working with intention — freeing people from the weight of slow processes so they can focus on what truly matters. It’s about bringing tomorrow’s possibilities into your life today, and using technology in a way that lets creators live more freely, work more meaningfully, and design lives that feel as good as the work they produce.
