My Education
My journey into UX was unconventional—it felt backwards, or as I like to say, "I
was reverse engineering it." I began studying networking and telecommunications at Galileo University but
was more drawn to web development. This led me to learn full-stack development with Ruby on Rails and
explore React, bridging design and development. My passion for user-centered experiences grew, and I
earned the Google UX Design Professional Certificate. Now, as I pursue my MSc in Computer Science, I'm
combining my technical and design skills to push my work further.

Bachelor in Telecommunications (3rd year drop-out)

which led to my passion for UX and front-end development.
