Matteo Romano · Frontend Developer

Hi 👋 I'm Matteo and I'm a

Frontend developer with a creative streak: I build interfaces and apps with React, Next.js, React Native, and Vue. I started in Economics and Marketing, then moved into digital. I also studied computer science in high school, so the urge to build has always been there.

I like taking an idea and bringing it online—especially when it comes from a real need. I believe in knowledge sharing: growing is easier together.

About

Creative + technical, in the same tab.

I’m Matteo Romano — a frontend developer who occasionally designs the UI too. I’m empathetic by default: I’ll think about the user even when the ticket doesn’t explicitly ask me to.

I love turning ideas into real products (fast feedback loops are my comfort zone). And I’m all about knowledge sharing: everyone has something to teach, regardless of seniority.

Timeline

The path so far (plot twist included).

A quick snapshot of how I went from marketing to UI to frontend — and why I like living at the intersection.

Computer science in high school (the first spark).

That’s where I learned the basics of programming. The urge to build things stuck with me, even while I explored other paths.

BSc

Economics degree (yes, I can read KPIs and CSS).

I studied Economics. That background still helps me: I like interfaces that are not only pretty, but also purposeful.

MSc

Marketing took me into digital: design, social, copy, and video.

That’s where I got hands-on with communication and content: social media, copywriting, graphic design, and video making. It also sparked a new question: how do we build the thing?

UI/UX

From graphic design to UI/UX (hello, Figma).

I started studying UI/UX: flows, screens, prototypes, and lots of attention to the small details.

Frontend

Then I chose to build things myself.

That high-school IT background came back in the best way: I moved into frontend with React, Next.js, Tailwind (and some Vue). I love that instant feedback loop.

Today

Doing what I love: frontend development.

I love growing, so I keep learning and experimenting across the board: UI/UX, accessibility, performance, product, and new technologies.
