Summary

As a Senior UI/UX Designer and User Experience Specialist, I have over ten years of professional experience gained through successfully delivering numerous projects. My strengths include the user-centered design lifecycle—from user research and concept to visual design and creating interactive prototypes. My solid theoretical knowledge in interface design and usability allows me to craft appealing, intuitive designs that put users’ needs first. I’ve studied the theory of design in depth to develop a deep understanding of how users interact with digital interfaces.

Renowned clients like A1 Telekom Austria, BMW, msg Systems, Porsche, Sparkasse, Sixt, Swisscom, and T-Systems have trusted my expertise and appreciated my ability to effectively meet complex design requirements. I also have several years of technical know-how in web and front-end development as well as content management.
