About me

Dear All,

I would like to find out about the position as a "Mobile UX Designer" which I found here:

A short description of my person:

I finished my studies at the FH (Avanced Technical University) Münster with a Diploma (which is different from the English Diploma - it's 4 years) in the area of visual communication 1992. During my studies Ilearned classical print design skills. My first professional experiencewas at the Siemens Design Centre in Munich. This was my first exposure to User Interface Design and Interactive Media. Since that I continuously worked in this area.

I worked in companies like Kabel New Media, Spray Interactive or iXL Germany mainly on online projekts as a designer/art director and creative director. Some of my projects got prices and awards. You´ll find the some at the end of my portfolio.

From 1999 (to 2011) I started to work independently for clients like Peter Maly, Edgar Medien AG or Warnerbros.

Parallel to my work as a designer I had the opportunity to teach Design,Interaction Design, Flash at several universities in Germany:

1997 Lecturer at the FH (Technical University) Hamburg (HTML web design,2 days a week)

1998 Visiting professor at the University Essen (Interface design, 2 days a week)

This page contains information about the teaching assignments.

I speak English, German and I've started to learn Mandarin (but I'm just a beginner).

Apart from the design part, I'm able to program AS3 on a OOP level. I'm also familiar with HTML (5), CSS (3), Javascript, JQuery. I used PHP an MySql for many of my projects. As a CMS I used Joomla for several websites. You can find all the examples on the portfolio page, just click on the small "i" and you get some short explanations.

At the present I'm working as UX Designer in Germany, near Frankfurt. My assignments are mainly related to iPhone and iPad apps. Since my work is for the financial sector it's not allowed to show many details.

If you are interested in my skills and experience, I would be happy if you contact me.

Yours sincerely,

Manfred Spiller
