António Ferreira

UX/UI Designer + Front-end Web Developer

Barreiro, Portugal
I'm an experienced Digital Designer, Front-end Web Developer from Portugal, skilled in User Experience and Interface Design, working since the year 2000.

With a broad knowledge about Design Systems and Modular Design, I can provide teams with added value in bridging the gap between Designers and Developers.

I'm always looking for new challenges that value my hybrid profile (UX/UI + Front-end). My goal is to use my experience as a designer and front-end developer to help teams craft positive and meaningful digital experiences for humans.
