A bit about me as a
designer.
When I am not solving problems, I walk around my neighbourhood in Friedrichshain. I draw and write when I can. Love biking and exploring new places to eat at. Music is a big part of my life and I'm a self-taught bass player, now playing the guitar.
My focus is on Design Strategy, Foresight and Systems thinking, and I drive it with informed Service Design and Interaction design with the help of User Research, Wireframes, Pixel-Perfect-Product-Design, Ideation Workshops and Usability Testing.
In a more ancillary approach I take part in Design Operations, UX Writing, Branding and Visual Design. Lately, Speculative and Critical Design has caught my eye and I wrote my masters thesis on it.

A bit about me as a
person.
When I am not working I like exploring my neighbourhood in
Berlin, planning my life, reading or teaching myself music. I love
anything Devin Townsend does.
When I get tired I take a nap, I
am really good at it.
