Ciao,
I'm Andrea Mecenero
Passionate UI & UX designer
with a love for graphic design, art, and architecture.
Fueled by a passion for the World Wide Web, sustainability, and travel.
Let's create something extraordinary together.
Mastering User Interfaces
My journey as a UI designer is fueled by a relentless pursuit of inspiration. I immerse myself in the latest works and emerging talents on platforms like Behance and Dribbble.
To stay informed and innovative, I regularly consume design-related content from leading platforms such as Medium's UX Collective, Prototypr.io, and Muzli.
Additionally, I curate a personalized collection of design newsletters, drawing insights from thought leaders like EWD Weekly, Webdesigner News, and more. I continually refine my craft, elevate my design sensibilities, and analyze competitor websites to select the best practices that work better on my projects.
Mastering User Experiences
As a UX designer committed to continuous learning and growth, I hone my skills by actively engaging with the rich resources provided by the Interaction Design Foundation (IDF). Through IDF's comprehensive courses and vibrant community forums, including Visual Design, Usability, and Portfolio Review, I immerse myself in diverse perspectives and share insights with fellow UX enthusiasts.
Additionally, I enrich my understanding of UX principles by delving into open-source literature such as "The Encyclopedia of Human-Computer Interaction," "Design System Handbook," "Web Usability Report," and "Articulating Design Decisions" by Tom Greever, which helps me improve my communication about design choices with my team and my managers and stakeholders.
Furthermore, I recognize the importance of integrating AI into UX testing, and I am actively incorporating AI tools into my daily work to enhance user experiences. To further expand my knowledge in this area, I am pursuing new courses on AI through the IBM online class platform. This holistic approach empowers me to create impactful and user-centered experiences that resonate with audiences.

My story
Childhood
Born on November 22 in Arzignano (Italy) and I grew up in a small, cozy village at the bottom of the Alps Mountains. From an early age, I liked drawing and building miniature models.
Education
I graduated in accounting in high school, but thanks to my fondness for art and design, I overturned my career in graphic design and graduated at the College of Art ISGMD in Lecco (Italy).
Career
After my graduation, my career started with substantial experience in the graphics industry, then I focused on web technologies (HTML, CSS, Sass, JS) and UI skills (wireframes and prototypes).
Multicultural Experiences
I lived in several places in three different Continents, from Down Under to Maple Leaf land, and back to the Old Continent. Thanks to those experiences and cooperations with local companies and freelancers, I had an opportunity to work in different environments and know a different approach to design.
Future
During my past experiences, I had the opportunity to gain unique skills while working with various customers. I am strongly motivated and willing to continue my career as a UI & UX Designer. I want to progress my career in a fast-growing and open-mind company where innovations are always a priority.
