Profile

I am a hardworking and motivated Industrial Design Master student with an open mind to design challenges and solutions in the overlap of design, user and technology. I am flexible, quickly adapting to new situations. I always want to learn something new and I like to experiment and create working prototypes. I can be a perfectionist, and though I work best in a team, I am able to plan and work individually as well.
My personal interest is in the combination of senses in the design of interactive products, especially in the integration of sound in design.
