OKRs for small scale teams

I share my personal journey with implementing Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) in different environments. My perspective shifted when I joined a small, distributed startup, where I initially believed OKRs were unnecessary. Yet, as the team expanded and ambitious projects emerged, implementing Objectives and Key Results proved valuable in maintaining focus, alignment, and smoother execution. Read on MentorCruise blog

User experience is a matter of pace not speed. Timing is of paramount importance when you design user experience. Any service sets user expectations about time, missing these expectations will create friction. Read on UX Collective blog

Research

Food Tracer: using augmented reality to visualize food facts

During my MA in Digital Communication at Central Saint Martins in London, I conducted research on how information visualization can facilitate everyday decision-making and drive social changes. To demonstrate my thesis, I developed an Augmented Reality app designed to instantly highlight information about product origins while shopping in supermarkets.
For further details, you can read the background of my research or watch the demo of Food Tracer.

Zooming out from the desktop: the use of metaphors in Human-Computer Interface design

During my MA at Central Saint Martins, I conducted research on HCI, UX, and data visualization. I authored a dissertation on the use of metaphors in HCI, arguing that the Desktop Metaphor has become outdated and should be replaced by spatial metaphors. To substantiate my thesis, I developed a web app that organizes bookmarks using a map metaphor.
You can read my dissertation or try the demo.

Video games and communication

For my BA in Communication graduation project, I wrote a dissertation focusing on the communication aspects of video games, specifically analyzing the communication between video game designers and players. You can read the abstract in English or access the full text in Italian.
