About

Ciao! I’m a Senior Product Designer at Microsoft in Prague, where I help shape the future of meetings for Microsoft Teams. With over 7 years of experience as a design consultant working with international clients across diverse industries, including automotive and tobacco, I’ve honed my skills in every phase of the design process—from client communication and stakeholder engagement to customer involvement and co-design techniques.

As a mentor, I’m passionate about helping aspiring designers break into the tech industry. I can assist with refining your CV and portfolio, crafting compelling case studies to showcase your skills, and offering strategic advice for career growth in today’s competitive market. I’m also equipped to share tips on how to collaborate effectively with Product Managers and Engineers.

If you're seeking an experienced mentor who can guide you toward your goals, I’d be delighted to work with you.

A bit more about me: I have a background in Industrial Design and Visual & Innovation Design, and I began my career at Accenture in Rome, designing digital experiences for public services. After a year, I moved to Prague, where I currently live and work. Outside of my professional life, I’m an avid traveler, dedicated belly dancer, proud cat mom, and plant enthusiast.

I recently had an introduction call with Eleonora, and it was fantastic. She provided a clear and insightful overview of the mentor's role in design. Her explanations were both comprehensive and easy to understand, making complex concepts accessible. Eleonora’s enthusiasm and practical advice were incredibly motivating. She shared valuable strategies and personal experiences, which made the session both informative and engaging. Her passion for mentoring and dedication to fostering growth in others was evident throughout. Overall, I left the call feeling inspired and better informed about effective mentorship in design :-)
