Über mich
Hello, I am a design professional with a passion for creating meaningful user experiences and innovative product designs. With a rich tapestry of 8 years in the design industry, I've honed my expertise as an UX Researcher & Designer and Product Designer. My multidisciplinary background, bolstered by the completion of two master's degrees in Product Design, equips me with a holistic perspective on design challenges. However, it is my profound dedication to sustainability that truly sets me apart. Guided by a passion for creating harmonious interactions between people, products, and nature, I am driven to shape a world where design not only captivates but also conserves. Fluent in four languages, I bring a global perspective to my work, fostering cross-cultural connections and enhancing communication. I am driven by a relentless curiosity to fuse creativity with functionality, resulting in solutions that not only delight users but also enrich the environment.
