With 20 years1 of experience building digital products, I'm a designer who codes2 and speaks the language of business. I'm a Brazilian living in Italy3 with my family, focused on bridging the gap between design and AI technology.

I've tripled MRR4 in 2 years at yampa, led a redesign that drove 4M+ downloads5 at Astrolink, and spent two decades shipping SaaS products6 that actually work.

120 years means I designed through Flash, Skeuomorphism, Flat Design, Material, and now AI-native workflows.

2Currently designing and shipping production-ready frontend code using Claude, Cursor, and Antigravity.

3Based in Ivrea, Piedmont — yes, the city where Olivetti invented the personal computer.

4yampa is a B2B financial intelligence SaaS platform.

5Astrolink is Brazil's leading astrology social network.

Two years cancelled. Rebuilt in two months.

A complete redesign cancelled a week before launch due to critical technical debt. The forced pivot became an AI-first workflow that rebuilt the entire frontend in under two months.
