About me

” I value design culture and openness to feedback, I like to share my passions with others and observe how a seed of knowledge flourishes in someone elseβs mind. This is why in my current position, I create a framework to share knowledge, support colleagues, and provide feedback without criticism. I like to be stimulated to discover new design fields and to improve the current state of work“
