About me

Having studied both interaction design and pre-press technology, I'm able to bring my skills in typography, color theory and layout to the design of user-friendly and visually attractive digital products.

My skillset

Interaction Design

Studying interaction design has given me a whole different perspective on design. Combining my analog skills with my new-learned digital knowledge opens up many doors.

Design

Graphic Design, Animation, Websites, Applications or other design related tasks. I love tackling analog and digital problems and help fix them.

Illustration

While illustrating I truly forget time passing. It's the thing that keeps me up at night. Illustration is where I feel truly at home weather it's just simple pen and paper or using Procreate on the iPad.
