Arianna Recchia

Self professed sci-fi nerd and quirky creative, Arianna keeps her Italian roots firmly intact with a regular call for caffetino!’

Her Grandad's painting and Dad's passion for anything relating electronics inspired Arianna to follow a career that blends the two. UX / UI design turned out to be the perfect mix; an outlet for both her creative spirit and technical mind.

Though Arianna (Ari or Ri Ri) is much at home in London and can often be found on a cycle around town before stopping in a park to read a book, she cherishes her Italian roots. Originally from Castellana Grotte, Bari in Italy, her Mum's parmigiana, or any Italian food, is still her favourite. "Any food, actually." she giggles.

While she holds a qualification from NABA (Nuova Accademia delle Belle Arti) in Milan, Ari's the lifelong student and creative; always reading about design, painting, dabbling in ceramics, or researching how to improve her skills. And if you read her as funny, goofy, and independent, you'd be right.

If you look beyond her 'creative madness', you'll quickly discover a deeper drive: "I do what I do because I feel like this is the best way for me to improve people's lives. I've chosen Bitstocks because of the goal to provide people with an alternative to traditional banking."
