About

Simple flesh between stardust and binary code.
Curious about pragmatic and human-centered design.

Work Experience

2022 — Now
2018 — 2021

Part of the Corporate Incubator Mobile & AI Campus (MAIC). Within a small development team, I found myself between ideatiating, designing and developing AI-based solutions and interactive prototypes.

As Designer I provided evaluation and specification of user requirements; conception and definition of navigation and content; modeling functional sequences and interaction principles; defining and developing application character and behavior; planning, execution and evaluation of usability tests.

2017 — 2018

For the Mobile Photo Service, I created concepts and designs through user flows, user interface design and a style guide for a total of eight requirements: two operating systems with different development teams – Android and iOS – for smartphone and tablet; each in portrait and landscape mode.

Moreover, I delivered a modern navigation concept for an improved photo selection and a prototype for a more intuitive order path, as well as a new editor concept for more extensive and easy to use editing functions of individual photos.
