Digital Designer

UI/UX Design • Human Factors • AI • MSc HCI

I help teams move faster with clean, tested interfaces that scale. My process blends logic, research, and design systems to reduce friction and build user trust.

Yes, I designed this.

about me

Currently based in Brazil, open to relocation and full-remote roles. I lived in Italy for the past 7 years and speak Italian, English, and Portuguese fluently.

I’m currently pursuing an MSc in Human-Computer Interaction [1], and I hold an MSc in Communication Technologies and Multimedia [2], as well as a BSc in Digital Systems and Media [3].

Outside of design, I enjoy skiing, digital painting, film photography & playing ukulele.
