Profile: https://flows.cv/marcozamarato

I am a design leader and technologist working to critically consider today's technologies and build sustainable, thoughtful platforms.

I use common sense, pencil and paper to clarify things, solve design system and platform design problems.
I move between the micro (the tiny details that make the difference) and the macro (the systemic thinking that holds everything together), the tangible and the invisible, mixing strategic thinking with empathy and intuition.

For the curious: the header is a piece from Mark Lombardi, one of my favorite artists.
