About
I am an Industrial Product Designer with four years of professional experience. I have many interests, and I easily become keen on different fields; I chose to be a designer because I like to innovate objects, to better their functioning, to transform how they interact with the user, and therefore improve their aesthetic value. My study background gave me the possibility to combine my creative abilities with the awareness of fundamentals in transportation design, design engineering, interaction design, and VR programming. My professional experiences in Germany have also given me the chance to achieve the design of a patented product; in Italy, I have been involved in the design process and 3D digital modeling of home devices that are currently in production, and I’ve also had the opportunity to work in a company that prototypes concepts cars for some of the most important brands on the market.
