Ever since the beginning of my life, I’ve been creative, curious and passionate about all types of design, interesting technology and trying out new things. Ive always been interested in knowing how things work, how they are built, but also thinking about how they can be improved. I’ve always been fascinated by the intersection of design, technology and human behavior, and how they can be used to help people.

In 2012 I slowly started my career as a freelance as graphic designer, next to my studies. In this period I mostly working on projects for smaller buisnisses, local news papers and a handful of student associations. I especially worked a lot with design and communication towards event promotion and social media

In 2016, after finishing my degree in ‘Informatics: Design, use & interactions’, I continued my career as a UX designer, which felt like a natural intersection between information technology and design. I was driven by wanting to help people by making products easier and more accessible. Such as understanding the users and their needs, and then turn those needsinto services, products, or experiences, that worked for them.

Since then, I’ve worked with in different fields, such as gaming, tv & streaming, the travel industry, online marketplaces, designing anything from clever buttons to whole travel platforms

Besides design, I’ve also worked on several side projects, such as creating and hosting design conferences and independent workshops, and managing festivals and social media.
