About Me

*Discovering Design through Life and Exploration*

Born and raised in a family of entrepreneurs and avid travelers, I've devoted nearly 30 out of my 35 years to exploring and journeying through diverse countries. I didn't just tour these places; instead, I immersed myself for extended periods, delving deep into the cultures and mindsets of the local people.

Milan has been my nurturing ground, shaping me into a cultured and grounded individual. Thanks to Italians, especially the Milanese, I've grasped the essence of "excellence," whether it's a plate of pasta or a piece of design.

With a fervor for design, I concluded my academic pursuits at NABA - Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti in Milan, diving headfirst into the expansive world of design.

My initial foray into digital graphic art steered me towards focusing on client needs in recent years. The realms of User Interface and User Experience have become integral parts of my daily life. FIGMA has evolved into one of my closest companions 🙂

The UI/UX field spurred me to subsequently delve into learning coding languages for crafting responsive websites.

Hence, during the 2020/2021 pandemic, I thoroughly acquainted myself with WordPress and Elementor, prioritizing knowledge in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for website programming and realization.
