Summary

As a Senior UX and UI Designer, I create digital products and apps in complex, interdisciplinary project environments. I work systemically, sustainably, and with a clear focus on user needs, technical feasibility, and a consistent user experience.

My goal is to develop solid UX concepts that work long-term, are scalable, and integrate seamlessly into existing product and system landscapes. A clear, minimal visual language and high design quality are as important to me as structured, transparent concept development.

With my design and technical background, I act as a connecting link between design and development. Open, precise, solution-oriented communication on an equal footing is a key success factor for me to implement concepts efficiently and create high-quality products together.

In addition to my project work, I share my knowledge as a lecturer in Design Thinking and Prototyping at Augsburg University of Applied Sciences, staying continuously engaged with current methods, technological developments, and new perspectives.
