Andrea Bizzarri — Product Designer
Hello there. I’m a Product Designer with 10+ years in the field and a strong bias toward strategy, built working across luxury fashion, pharma, commodity, and telco.
My design process covers the full stack, from research to implementation, and I love working on complex systems where every design decision carries real product weight.
In my spare time, I run D&D campaigns and experiment with new ideas, like building a CMS-free editorial system from scratch, which is now the backbone of this portfolio — article: The DIY Route: Building a Custom Editorial Section Without a CMS.
