“ People used to tell me this world is full of problems. Design taught me that these problems actually mean opportunities and it’s a privilege to be in the position to solve them. “

Profile
I am a certified UX Designer, trained Architect and currently UX/UI Lead for the Edtech company Unitu. Based in London, UK and available for new projects.

As an Architect, I developed a passion for rallying teams behind a shared vision (arch: parti pris). I learned to liaise with clients and stakeholders and juggle between the most diverse requirements: business, engineering, aesthetic, cultural, legal and environmental. I was made to think in systems or outside the box and reverse-engineer everything along my way.
I deeply care for our environment and the future of humanity as a whole. I have gained a profound understanding in sustainable and circular Design practices. In my past experience, I worked on Berlin's biggest timber construction project and was awarded at hackathons for tackling food waste and making fashion circular.
“ 10 years of Design have taught me that everyone is a Designer - if they want it or not - and the real duty of a pro Designer is to educate them in how to design well. “
I am fascinated by the level of sophistication that our technology has reached and how it can make or break our behaviours. With the pandemic, I found the incentive to dare the quantum leap into the world of tech and offer my service as a UX/UI Designer.
Next to my UX Diploma, I am currently implementing the whole Design Process into Unitu's business model and culture. My ultimate goal is to grow into a Design leadership role and guide teams in saving the world from bad Design: less waste, less frustration, more purpose.
