I work in the service design field of things - think of everything, where a human being might get in contact with a offering from another party. Could be your StartUp, right?

Personally my roots dig into bavarian soil, growing up in the Chiemgau. Yet, my mind and heart know how to soar above the clouds. Essentially I like to see myself as a combination of curiosity and stability.
Working on A/B versions, getting user feedback fast and find ways of creating delightful experiences around user needs as fast as possible.

Sketching out a rough interaction idea or generating complex workflows. Nothing compares to the power of a well executed concept.
Wether it is about crafting pixel-perfect screens or delightful and strong communication concepts, this is where it all comes together.
Putting colors, fonts, metaphors and design elements into on holistic document is tough - and fun! Need to do one? Let's get it done!
Giving a quick overview of the UX landscape or giving a talk about storytelling principles is all it needs to get things rolling.
