[/] About me
With a master’s degree in architecture and extensive practical experience, I have developed a distinctive perspective on design, space, and user experience. My expertise goes beyond physical architecture, seamlessly extending into the digital realm, particularly in UX research for innovative websites and apps.
For the past several years, I have made Rotterdam my home, where I have honed my architectural skills and embarked on self-taught programming, discovering a deep passion for UX research. My professional journey has been diverse—ranging from creating intricate set designs to developing advanced protocols for image storage on the Bitcoin network. More recently, I have been engaged in plastic material research, fabrication and object design, further expanding my multidisciplinary approach. I have also had the privilege of collaborating with several Rotterdam art institutions, working closely with project makers to help realise their visions. Despite the variety of my work, the consistent theme throughout has been the application of foundational design principles to create innovative digital experiences.
By combining my architectural insights with UX design principles, I ensure that every project I undertake is deeply rooted in a comprehensive understanding of user flow, always prioritising the end user. This approach enables me to create digital platforms that are not only functional but also resonate instinctively with their users.
Driven by an insatiable curiosity and a relentless desire to learn and grow, I am always eager to engage in transformative projects that strive to make a positive impact on the world. While my work has taken me across Europe, Rotterdam remains the hub of my operations.
Through collaborations with startups at various stages of development, I have contributed to marketing strategies focused on viral growth. These experiences, combined with my unique background, have equipped me to craft memorable, user-friendly experiences deeply rooted in design.
