"Me", oil painting on canvas, 2023

Hi, I'm Davide and, if you haven't read the title in the Home or if you happened here by mistake, I'm a Digital Product Designer.

The tutorials on “How to create a perfect portfolio in 2024” on Youtube say that in this section I have to tell a little bit about myself, so I will try to steal you as little time as possible!

I was born and raised in Italy 🤌 and I can say that my passion for design comes from entire days spent building Lego sets during my childhood.
‍
During my Bachelor's degree in design the Don Norman's best seller book "The Design of Everyday Things" influenced my interest in User Experience. From that moment I said to myself “Maybe my destiny is not to design restaurant menus This is what I want to do!”.

As I continued my studies, I delved into the disciplines of Service and Interaction Design, and after getting my Master's degree, I started to put my skills into practice mainly in the startup field. Here I got involved in designing digital experiences and challenged myself to try to maintain a high quality of outputs despite the typical speed of the industry.

These early experiences also got me interested in the implementation part of the interfaces I was designing and that is why after experimenting with many no-code tools, I currently started to expand my skills towards web programming and creative coding.
‍

After this short bio, I move on to the list of some fun facts so I fill the page and you can understand something more about me:

/ I love the world of design (exept the categories, every month I should change the job title)
‍
/ The passion for design leads me to always read new books to expand my knowledge (it improves the quality of my work and home furnishings, it's a win-win)

/ I am a precise person, I always try to take care in the things I do

/ When I don't understand something I try with all my strength to get to the bottom of it, in fact I hate hasty opinions

/ I practice Calisthenics about 3 times a week, just to make up for dinners with friends

/ In order not to lose too much IQ during training, I'm learning to play chess

/ I'm always up to date on memes, maybe that's the only reason I'm on social networks
