Expertise

I started out in advertising, working on classic campaigns for BMW and other renowned brands, before I fell in love with interactive entertainment and released more than 50 online games, creative tools and mobile apps.

I strive to be an early adopter. Over the past years, I've prototyped and managed projects that included technologies like AR, VR, NFC, conductive coatings and Bluetooth communication, as well as holographic effects.

My expertise includes UX Design, Digital Strategy and the end-to-end Product Management of apps and digital experiences.

Skillset

I'm a forward-thinking individual filled with ideas, who strives for long-term value creation rather than short-term profits.

I'm skilled at simplifying complex problems into component parts, and am incredibly persistent in finding user-centric solutions that balance the needs of different user groups and business goals.

However, my most valuable assets are my resilience and my enthusiasm for life-long learning. I believe that constantly upgrading yourself is an indispensable skill to tackle challenges in a rapidly changing world. My UX skills cover:

       🎯 User-Centered Design
       📱 Mobile-First and Responsive Design
       👁 Emotional and Visual Design
       🧑🏾‍💻 Information Architecture and User Flows

       🔬 Generative and Evaluative User Research
       📋 Usability and Preference Testing
       👥 User Personas and Business Requirements

Personal Traits

I'm a strong collaborator and have worked with cross-functional teams from tech, design and business.

My colleagues would describe me as an authentic and considerate individual who is commited to integrity and maintains a calm, proactive attitude when faced with adversity. I strongly value open-mindedness, but vigorously dislike rhubarb.

Areas of Interest

I have a deep passion for games, toys and education.

Currently, I’m seeking opportunities that will allow me to develop and promote products that foster playful learning, improve digital literacy and empower kids to become the creative problem-solvers and changemakers of tomorrow.

I'm also interested in supporting future-facing organizations to build digital strategies for the Metaverse.

I know you're bored of this overhyped buzzword, but whatever you call the next iteration of the internet – in the coming decades, billions will start using persistent, interoperable virtual worlds daily, introducing huge opportunities to re-imagine the way we learn, work, play and shop in real-time.

I'm not interested in NFT or crypto projects.
