UX-UI designer blending communication, full‑stack foundations, and human-centered design for accessible digital experiences.
What I'm looking for
I am a UX-UI designer who combines a background in intercultural communication with full-stack development training to create accessible, user-centered digital products. My work emphasizes empathy, clarity, and practical usability improvements informed by research and testing.
At Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, I contributed to UX improvement projects for university digital platforms, performing UX audits, accessibility reviews, content evaluation, and information architecture optimization. Previously I managed customer service and operations for a hospitality business, strengthening my stakeholder collaboration and operational problem-solving skills.
I trained at Talent Garden Digital Skills Academy in UX methodologies and completed a fullstack development course to ground my design practice in technical feasibility. I focus on prototyping and usability testing using tools like Figma and Miro, and I bring attention to detail, active listening, and empathy to every project.
