About

I love product design, design systems and building teams. I worked as freelancer, in agencies and built products and design systems. And now I am helping to make a team work more successful and efficient together.

Talk to me about: psychology, food, video games or mushrooms

Side Projects

Ongoing

Together with friends we founded the "Post mit Herz" platform in 2020 to connect volunteer letter writers with potentially lonely people in elderlyhomes, hospices or homeless shelters to reduce loneliness and increase connection between people.

Since 2020 we distributed over 500.000 letters and cards.
