Who I am
My work background is primarily from the museum industry as an communicator of art and history.
My passion for art stems from my love for stories. In my world, stories can be found in the details, whether in an old door or a tiny wooden sculpture. While it brings me childlike joy to help others discover these stories, I also recognize the seriousness of storytelling. Through conveying war history and narratives on human rights and ideology, I've gained profound respect for the power of storytelling and its impact on those who experience it. Changing the narrative can alter an entire reality.
After many years in museums, I desired a shift and wanted to explore new areas. I've now studied UX design with a goal to make both small and large life stories readable and meaningful. As a UX designer, I aspire to contribute to design tools that make life simpler, more enjoyable, fulfilling their function while motivating to action.
In a complex world, I appreciate simplicity. I love easy living, silence, and everyday magic. My aim is to simplify what doesn't need to be complicated and break down what's daunting by zooming out and identifying the problem. I value that solutions are well functioning and helps the user to reach their goal to make their everyday easier.
As a problem-solver and in ideating processes, I am empathic, observant, analytical, structured, creative, and always eager to learn.
I love working in a team. But I also appreciate silent work for reflection and structured assignments. I am hardworking, open to acquiring new knowledge, endlessly curious, and appreciate challenges that both demand and reward.
