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 driven by constant exploration and inspiration. I frequently browse Behance and Dribbble to discover new design directions, while also keeping up with design thought leaders on Medium's UX Collective, Prototypr.io, and Muzli.
To ensure my work stays fresh and innovative, I subscribe to various design newsletters (including EWD Weekly and Webdesigner News), and regularly analyze competitor websites for best practices.
Through this iterative process, I fine-tune my aesthetic vision, maintain brand consistency, and enhance overall user engagement.
Mastering User Experiences
As a committed UX designer, I immerse myself in resources from the Interaction Design Foundation (IDF) and Nielsen Norman Group (NN/g) to stay current on emerging tools, research, and best practices. My studies also include newly completed courses in the IBM SkillsBuild program, where I learned about Enterprise Design Thinking and AI Fundamentals—key frameworks that shape my approach to user-centric problem-solving.
In addition, I continue to explore open-source readings like “The Encyclopedia of Human-Computer Interaction” and Tom Greever’s “Articulating Design Decisions”, all of which sharpen my ability to communicate and defend design solutions effectively.
Equipped with a growing understanding of AI-powered methodologies, I integrate AI tools into my UX research and testing workflows to gain richer user insights. Combining this expertise with practical, hands-on design strategies, I deliver experiences that resonate with users, align with business goals, and push the boundaries of digital innovation.

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.

The Thinker - Deep thoughts, big questions
For the THINKER, the examined life is truly the only one worth living. Ever the perpetual student, you experience the world as an endless opportunity for learning, discovery, and truth-seeking.
Driven by an insatiable intellectual curiosity, the THINKER makes the quest for knowledge and truth a lifelong pursuit.
Few things satisfy your inquisitive mind more than a well-formulated question or an elegant solution, and you’re content to spend much of your time alone, exploring topics that fascinate you and engaging with your inner world of ideas.
Your greatest gifts are your sense of wonder and depth of perception. You can see the big picture and the deeper meaning of almost any situation in a way that few others can.
