About me
I'm a human-centered physical product developer, industrial designer, and a coordinator of multidisciplinary new product development teams.
I've worked with start-ups and multi-nationals, and developed medical devices, consumer electronics, sporting goods, commercial tools and industrial equipment - with a straight-forward and highly collaborative process.
As a designer, I pay diligent attention to the needs and experiences of the user, with a bias towards simplicity, mechanical elegance, and high quality.
As a team leader of design and engineering experts, my role is to set our development strategy, to clear away barriers and inefficiencies, to ensure good communication and well-reasoned decision-making, and to ensure that the best interests of our clients stay in focus.
