About me
Short Bio
Hello! My name is Pablo Di Firma and I was born in Argentina in 1983. I hold a Licentiate degree (BA/MA) in Graphic Design from UAI and a degree in Art Direction from ESCP.
I’ve acquired skills across various design disciplines, such as orthotypography, creativity, and photography. Subsequently, I deepened my expertise in UI/UX, design sprint training, and foundational web development technologies like PHP, HTML and CSS.
As a freelancer in Argentina, I’ve developed graphic projects for local clients, focusing on corporate identity, editorial, and web design. While working for Livio in Huelva, Spain, I contributed to sustainable design projects for organizations like Junta de Andalucía, Cordon Verde, and Fundación Doñana.
Currently, I work as a UX Designer, dedicated to improving user experiences on web and mobile applications. In this role, I’ve collaborated with agile teams for prominent companies such as Telecom Argentina, Grupo San Cristóbal, Matba Rofex, and Donweb.
Some of my personal work has been selected for the following international contests, biennials, and exhibitions:
