Hello! I'm a 37-year-old "mature" student at the beginning of my journey in the IT world.

I'm specializing in UI-UX design (how to make web design more useful and user-friendly for both the user and the client) and in No-Code development.

I use tools like Figma, Webflow, and Framer, and I present clients with a clear, structured, and collaborative workflow, divided into key phases:

🔹 Discovery & Research: competitor analysis, moodboard creation, and visual inspiration gathering. When needed, I also prepare a Design Brief outlining goals, target audience, and client requirements.
🔹 Wireframe: a basic and functional layout to define the structure of the site, useful for validating layout and content hierarchy.
🔹 Mockup: a high-fidelity design with colors, fonts, images, and visual elements to preview the final look of the project.
🔹 Prototype: an interactive, navigable prototype that allows user experience testing and feedback before development.
‍
I share every step through interactive Figma links, so the client can follow the project in real time, leave comments, request edits, and be actively involved.

My goal is to help clients overcome challenges and achieve a functional, coherent result. Since I’m at the beginning of this path, I’m also open to collaborative roles or Junior Web Designer positions, to join teams and grow professionally.

I’m a 37-year-old professional with 18 years of experience in the restaurant industry, where I developed strong skills in customer management, patience, and teamwork in high-intensity environments.

Working as a bartender and waiter taught me how to handle challenges with resilience and adaptability.

I also earned a degree in History while working full-time, an achievement that kept my mind sharp and fostered a commitment to continuous learning and self-improvement.

Now, I want to channel these qualities into a career in IT, where my experience in managing complex situations and collaborating effectively can bring real value as I move forward in this new chapter.
