Hi there! My name is Andrés Buzzo. I’ve been crafting and delivering digital experiences that help users solve problems, businesses grow, and brands shine for more than 15 years.
This is my story:
I was born and grow up in La Plata, a working class city near Buenos Aires, Argentina.
On the fabulous year of 1980.
Since I was a kid, I loved computers. I grew up next to them.
I also loved comics, drawing, painting, listening to music and watching 80's and 90's movies and TV shows (I'm still loving all that!).
Already young, I got a degree in visual communication design.
My first work experience was drawing in traditional animation films (frame by frame!). So, I learned how to bring my art to life.
I moved to Buenos Aires in 2005. I worked in some companies as a designer, doing branding, print design, illustrations, motion graphics and websites (in Flash of course!).
In 2010, smartphones appeared and I got involved in this exciting industry, initially working as a freelancer for startups and global companies.
In 2016, with some friends we decided to create our own digital product: an app to help football clubs to connect with their fans and sponsors.
We created an MVP and sold the idea to Chivas de Guadalajara, one of the clubs with the most fans around the world.
The product didn’t stop growing. It became in a SaaS platform. We got to be 40 people working for a dozen teams in Latin America.
I had a small design team and spent a couple of years playing a leader role, taking strategic decisions, organizing tasks, estimating efforts, managing people and mentoring.
Unfortunately, when the Covid 19 arrived, the ball stopped rolling, the clients went away… and our employees as well.
The project agonized almost for 2 years and finally died.
At that moment, in my free time I could improve my English fluency and started working as a freelancer, mostly for American companies.
And I'm on it now!
I really love what I do!
Travel
Trekking
Camping
Music
Arcades
With skills in over 5 different fields of design, I'm the right match when it comes to a full fledged project.
Whatever your needs are, I can fit on any challenge.
End-to-end UX & UI design for complex websites & apps. Understanding project goals, user needs, client needs, solving problems and building amazing products.
My experience with agencies, software startups and big companies helped me to train an smart eye for design. Colors, typography, layout, hierarchies, design systems... the entire package.
I started my journey animating frame-by-frame cartoons for movies in my university days. I could develop my own style for animations and micro-interactions, reinforcing the storytelling.
I spent a lot of time sharing the same table with developers. I learned to code HTML+CSS just to have a common understanding with them. Now, I'm able to layout my own responsive websites.
I have complete proficiency in Webflow, the most amazing no-code tool for digital development. I've built over 10 interactive sites and have experience with CMS collections as well.
