About

I am a Digital Product Designer and completed my studies at the Hochschule für Gestaltung in Schwäbisch Gmünd in 2026.

In design, I feel most at home in the methodical development of user-centered concepts, the visual design of digital products, and prototype development.

As can be seen in my projects, topics such as inclusion play an important role for me. Enabling people who have difficulties in everyday life for a variety of reasons to participate better is a goal I like to set myself in my personal projects.

Even outside the professional world, design is an important part of my life, as a means of creative expression.

For this, I also use painting and photography, the latter of which combines perfectly with my other great passion, traveling.

In everyday life, I often take time for tea and spend almost every evening at the gym or with friends in the garage.
