STUDENT or JUNIOR UX DESIGNER? I can help you refine your CV and portfolio, create new case studies to showcase your skills, and more generally help you grow as a designer. Additionally, I can share valuable insights and advice to help you navigate the workplace, whether you're just starting or looking to take your career to the next level.

STARTUPPER or ENTREPRENEUR? I can deliver a UX audit of your digital product and help you upgrade the user experience so that your business can thrive.

Ciao! I'm a Senior UX Designer from Italy with 5+yrs experience in the field. I am passionate about helping others grow and succeed in their careers, and I believe I can make a real difference in your professional journey! If you're looking for an experienced mentor who can help you reach your goals, I would be delighted to work with you. Let's connect!

A few things about me:
In my career so far I have curated the UX and UI of SaaS products in the B2B world (banking, real estate, business, risk, digital signage), but I've also had the pleasure of working in agencies in the UX/UI and CRO fields. Plus, having been on a design team of one for 4yrs, I know the struggles of being an only designer, especially as a junior!
I have a background in Psychology and a Master's degree in Human-Computer Interaction, and I love to keep up with the field by participating in conferences, tech events, and hackathons. I have mentored students and young designers entering the field for a few years now, and I'd love for you to be the next one!

Working with Maria Teresa has been extremely helpful in defining the path of my career. She has been very supportive since the very first day. Together, we have crafted my UX/UI portfolio, she has provided me with strategies, and most importantly, she has been practical by given me tips and suggestions that I was able to put immediately in practice to get interviews. Another aspect that I appreciated is her flexibility and her constant availability via chat for any eventual questions that were not clear. I had to interrupt the mentoring for personal reasons, but I hope to be able to soon resume what we had started. Thank you Maria!

Maria is truly brilliant. She’s a master of design systems and an expert in Figma, knowing every nuance of the tool inside and out. Her approach to mentoring is incredibly thoughtful—she’s always thorough in her work and resourceful in every aspect, whether it’s flow charting, ideation, or problem-solving. Learning from her has been such a pleasure; she’s patient, insightful, and makes even the most complex concepts easy to grasp. I’ve learned so much from her, and I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to work with someone so talented and dedicated.
