German-born fashion designer searching for alternative ways to improve the design process. I love to discover what surrounds me to develop interdisciplinary collaborations with the aim to reuse resources, discovering textile techniques and innovative materials. Interested in traditional craftmanship from all around the world but also how technology can improve our work process. Ready to challenge the current fashion industry.

MA Fashion Futures explores digital design applications, the interplay of hard and soft sciences, design futuring, fashion design theory, fashion thinking, meta design, ethics, politics, psychology and anthropology. Students produce a diverse portfolio demonstrative of their contextual study and practice-based learning.
The studies include alternative business models, design thinking applied to diverse stages of the design process and the industry.
