Your mentor
Hi, I'm Annalisa! 👋
I’m a Product Designer with 10+ years of experience designing and building digital products, and 7+ years mentoring designers and founders. I specialize in creating intuitive and impactful SaaS, and AI-driven product experiences. Over the years, I’ve worked with both large organizations and innovative startups, across B2B and B2C environments, helping teams align design with business goals, scale design systems, and drive measurable product impact.
As a mentor I support designers at different stages of their careers, from junior designers building their first portfolio to senior designers growing into strategic roles.
How I can help you:
- Portfolio and CV reviews
- UX and product design feedback
- Interview preparation
- Career growth and role transitions
- Product thinking and design strategy
- Navigating B2B and complex product design
- Exploring AI tools and AI-assisted design workflows
