Creative technologist curious about the human side of technology, I am currently working as UX & Interaction Designer at Transforming Systems, in London, UK.
As a UX Designer, I view digital accessibility being the perfect case to explore the spectrum of user interactions. I consider the IAAP Web Accessibility Specialist certification a perfect opportunity for me in the near future for a thorough exploration of this spectrum.
Lately interested in Virtual reality, this technology changes our 2D digital world into an immersive 3D space, where new questions arise about our perceived presence, environment and social behaviour. My project in Google Daydream explored the challenge of balancing movement and motion sickness in mobile experiences.

Organised and facilitated a design sprint to form the Design System of Transforming Systems, by identifying key areas of improvement and quantifying them in Design Values and Design Principles. Based on current products' interfaces, I compiled a list of Components and Design patterns for Desktop applications, together with guidance for best practices. Not only I formulated the system, but it is being currently used as a reference document for QA testers, Designers and Project managers internally.
