About me
10 years UX Design experience
25+ years experience in the Design Industry
Hands on experience from research to implementation
Beyond my solid foundation in UX design and a deep understanding of how users think and behave, I find that it's precisely my soft skills that truly distinguish me as a senior. I see myself as someone who takes leadership within projects and can establish a clear vision, inspiring and motivating my team to bring out their best.
Communication is essential to me. Whether it's presenting my design choices to stakeholders, providing constructive feedback to colleagues, or clearly explaining complex ideas to people outside the design team, I ensure my message is clear and persuasive.
I strongly believe in collaboration. UX design is rarely a solo endeavor, and I function well within a team alongside designers, developers, product managers, and researchers. I value diverse perspectives and know how to integrate them to arrive at the best solutions.
I see complex design challenges as an opportunity to leverage my problem-solving abilities. I can break down abstract problems, explore different solution directions, and make well-considered decisions.
Managing multiple projects and deadlines is not an issue for me, thanks to my strong time management and organizational skills. I work in a structured way and know how to prioritize effectively.
I am capable of effectively substantiating and defending my design decisions, especially when there are differing opinions. I can argue constructively and convince stakeholders of the value of the chosen direction.
I am naturally a critical thinker. I ask questions, challenge assumptions, and I am always willing to reconsider existing solutions to achieve better results.
These soft skills, combined with my hard design skills, make me a valuable asset to any UX team.
