About me

Intro

I’m Mirko, an Italian Product Designer based in London. With over a decade of experience, I specialise in crafting mobile apps, web platforms, and websites for startups. I approach design as more than aesthetics; it’s a problem-solving discipline focused on aligning user needs with business goals. Recently, I’ve expanded into AI product design, leveraging tools like Claude AI to design smarter, more adaptive user experiences and workflows.
