About me

I'm Davide Proni, a UX/UI Designer and IT/Cloud Specialist based in Ravenna, Italy.

I'm passionate about technology and design, with a focus on creating solutions tailored to the needs of the users who will interact with them. I'm also expanding my technical expertise with an IFTS in network and cloud security, blending my creative background with IT.

In my free time, I love diving into all things creative—whether it's getting lost in music, exploring the world through photography, immersing myself in the magic of books, or finding inspiration in art.
