I’ve been in the digital field for over 12 years and consider myself a design generalist. I feel comfortable to work across boundaries and explore crossroads of multiple disciplines, such as service and experience design, speculative design, strategic foresight, (data) ethics and product.
I enjoy listening, asking questions and helping teams set their focus at the right time. This helps bring the team together around a common goal and drives me to lead with purpose.
I thrive in and evangelize for collaborative environments, where trust, psychological safety and people are the norm — here I be comfortable with the unknown and being able to navigate uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity.
