"I feel privileged to have a job I truly love!"
My heart beats for the science of colors and shapes, for how things look, feel, function and affect.
After various excursions into different cultures, living and working environments, which taught me to recognize and appreciate people's individuality and differences, my focus is now entirely on design work, which benefits greatly from my life experiences.
As a realistic idealist, my brain works in creative, conceptual, strategic and innovative ways. I love to analyze, ideate, learn, optimize, and simplify complex topics. Working with creative software is not only a job, but also a hobby, which materializes in artistic expressions.

"I am proud to be able to do something meaningful that serves people and businesses alike."
While design has always been about creating for users, I am currently further deepening and specializing my existing knowledge into the field of User Experience Design with Google's UX Design course to fully dedicate my work to the pursuit of providing the best possible experience to all users.

Happy users like to interact with the product.

Creativity paired with logic
Design know-how meets business expertise and marketing experience
​​​​​​​
My professional experience is complemented in particular by education and many years of work in office management at the executive level as well as marketing experience through advertising and sales work. In addition, I was able to sharpen my sense for customers and customer service during my studies and travels through gastronomic work activities.​​​​​​​

Teamwork makes the dream work
While I am flexible in terms of "where," I thrive best in an open, honest and diverse team where ideas can be communicated openly and mistakes are opportunities to learn and stepping stones to success.

- No matter what, she will open a spreadsheet.
- She thinks that plants have feelings too.
- No matter how often she travels – When the flight is coming up she still „pisses her pants“.
- She loves being unique and weird.
- She knows she can be blunt sometimes.
