The studio
Hey, I’m Michele.
A multidisciplinary designer and creative technologist with a background in Computer Science and a specialisation in UX/UI design — based in Malta, working worldwide.
During my degree I worked at Deloitte Digital as a junior UX/UI and graphic designer, getting hands-on with real-world design challenges early. Toward the end of university I interned at Draw & Code in Liverpool — one of the UK’s leading indie game studios — where immersive technology and game development sparked a deeper curiosity in interactive media.
That passion led me to Utrecht University in the Netherlands, studying game and media technology — exploring how design, animation and development come together in experimental, immersive formats.
Throughout all of this I co-founded Avenir Digital and Avenir Studio with a close friend, and we’ve been building digital products, brand experiences and creative projects ever since.
Outside of work I’m usually exploring, climbing, or swimming — always on the move, always curious.
