Background
I focus on the intersection of user research, interactive prototyping, and design systems. At GoCoCo, I work on the core onboarding funnel and paywall architecture, using A/B testing and session recordings to validate improvements.
I completed my Master of Science in IT (Web Communication Design) at the University of Southern Denmark, where I studied human-computer interaction, qualitative research, and accessible front-end development. Prior to that, I earned my bachelor's degree in communication sciences at the University of Ferrara.
