Biography
I’m a UX/UI Designer with a strong foundation in visual design and a deep passion for typography. I specialize in crafting intuitive, minimalist interfaces that prioritize clarity, coherence, and seamless user experiences. I believe that effective digital interactions stem from thoughtful visual hierarchy, meticulously designed typography, and a user-centered approach.
My professional journey started in an unexpected field—aeronautical engineering. At the Technical Institute A. Malignani in Udine, I developed analytical thinking, problem-solving skills, and a structured design methodology. These abilities now shape my approach to UX, where I balance logic with aesthetics to create functional and engaging digital products. Motivated by curiosity, I transitioned into design through self-initiated exploration, later refining my expertise with specialized training in UX and Graphic Design from Google Academy and CalArts.
Influenced by design pioneers such as AG Fronzoni, Bob Noorda, Bruno Munari, Jan Tschichold, Jost Hochuli, and Massimo Vignelli, I have cultivated a keen eye for timeless typography, geometric precision, and an elegant monochrome aesthetic. To me, typography is more than just a visual tool—it’s a fundamental element of communication, shaping the way users navigate and interpret information.
For me, black and white are more than colors; they represent the equilibrium between structure and creativity. By embracing this refined simplicity, I create interfaces that are both functional and visually compelling—where usability meets aesthetic harmony.
