ABOUT ME

Since 2005 I have been involved in everything from market research, marketing and communications, event and project management to UX design and product management. In March 2015, with my love of the digital space blooming, I left my office chair and became a digital nomad. Since the start of this new journey (that included my career change from marketing and communications to UX design in 2017), I have worked on various freelance and contract-based projects with teams located in 16 different countries. Team members included remote project and product managers, content and copywriters, graphic and UX/UI designers as well as web and mobile app developers. Working together on different projects resulted in the successful conception, development and release of numerous campaigns and products around the world. Today I simply adore UX design. My passion for it lies in understanding and filling the gaps of the 'bigger picture', asking the why and answering the how; being challenged to find and create solutions that are focused on optimizing the user’s experience of products - with design tailored to integrate both user and product needs. The goal is to create designs that make users happy! I believe success is achieved by implementing creative problem solving and solutions via the use of each team member’s strengths and abilities. It’s about collaboration, team spirit and great teamwork. In the end it comes down to planning, support, being goal oriented, hard work, having fun and celebrating a great end result together.
