Biography

Interdisciplinary Product Designer and former startup cofounder. Previously Senior Product Designer at Shopify, Director of Design at Qunomedical and Senior Product Designer building workspaces tools at Dave and UberMedia. Co-founded a startup which exited in 2017. A bunch of other fun companies and projects before that.

I focus on making complex workflows simple, effective, while adding a bit of delight. Also, I've been developing front-ends platforms since 2013. I have worked on go-to-market strategies, wireframing, flows, lo-fi, hi-fi, prototyping and followed it up with validation and testing. Currently studying German language—I’ll never stop learning. Schön Tag!

About this site. I made it by hand. No templates, 3rd party services, etc. It was built with Hugo, a static site generator, HTML, CSS and JavaScript. It’s a playground for me to learn, play and explore. If you have questions, feel free to ask.
