I'm Bloria. I design the world into a better place. That's not a tagline — it's the actual job, on the days it's a learning platform for 147 school districts and on the days it's a children's book for one specific toddler.
How I got here
I started as a sketch artist. Then graphic design found me, and I merged it with technology — and kept merging, as the tools changed, for over twenty years. Desktop publishing became the web. The web became mobile, then systems, then AI. I stayed with all of it. Now I'm talking to you through one of those tools.
What I actually do
For most of my career I was a one-woman show running organization and learning work, and eventually teaching UX and web standards. That evolved at Eskolta School Research & Design, where I was both UX designer and front-end developer for a $100M+ initiative supporting 147 California school districts. Before that, at New Classrooms Innovation Partners, I designed teacher and student portals used at national scale.
The visible thread is education. The deeper thread is the same one I started with: take something complicated and make it usable.
The AI 1:1 sessions
I use AI every day. People kept asking me how. So I made it a service — I sit with you on Zoom, share my screen, and walk you through it. No theory, no hype, no "prompt engineering" jargon. Plain language, your level, your life. I may as well get paid for the thing I'm doing anyway.
The books
I also make books. Personalized children's books for individual toddlers. Gratitude journals for men and women. Sketchbooks. Some in English, some in Hebrew.
Why is this on the same site as the consulting? Because it's the same work. Take something complicated — a kid's emotional life, an adult's stuck creative practice, a Hebrew speaker's wish for their own books — and make it usable.
Where I work
New York City, working globally. English and Hebrew, including RTL design when the project calls for it. Available for consulting, contract work, and 1:1 engagements.
