Ciao,

I'm Angela, am Italian Product Designer based in the United States. I have experience working on end-to-end product development, supporting discovery, ideation, prototyping and development efforts with my skills in research and testing, technical communication, interaction design and design strategy.

I have a knack for all things words: UI copy, coding languages, journal articles, reports, poems, short stories, foreign languages — yes, Duolingo is my favorite product.

Before design I spent 17 years as a classical concert pianist, bringing human touch and modern sensibilities to centuries-old compositions.
