Hey there!

a few words about me

(and why I do what I do)

About Me

Thanks to a creative childhood at home and the secondary school for social affairs, I had been realized I want to use this talent to benefit people and the environment.
My way as a designer started at the University of Applied Sciences in Munich with a Bachelor's in Industrial Design. I got enabled to identify problems and develop approaches and implementations through trial and error, with functional, aesthetic and sustainable characteristics.
The Master Strategic Design at HfG Schwäbisch Gmünd was the perfect addition. I got empowered to push my boundaries and understand design as a tool for research, future studies and management.

My Interests

Besides my profession, the craft is a big passion of mine, be it photography, repairing or handicrafts. When I'm not optimistic about the futures, you can find me on my racing bike, with my Fuji camera or as a cat dad at home experimenting with gluten-free recipes.

I am ready

                      to work with my skills on complex projects. I want to use design to provoke and create a better tomorrow in the fields of innovation, futuring, digitalization, sustainability and transformation, which obviously all flow into strategy.

Way of Working

                      With my background in three-dimensional design, I have moved away from a design understanding as  service, through my skills as a strategic designer I aim to grasp the bigger context.

I can place the iterative, convergent and divergent ways of design into different kinds of situations. I aim to create a necessary human-centered design.

I can move nonlinear and freely with my design toolbox and test boundaries by applying methodical, design-, future- and systemic thinking.

Ultimately, I make possibilities, probabilities and concepts through artifacts, services and products tangible and implement final fitting strategies or preferred futures.
