About me
Over the last ten years, I enjoyed leading projects with a collaborative approach working with multi-disciplinary teams. I am driven by the wide range of responsibilities I have taken on projects through the design process from initial briefing and strategy, to design research and ideation. After my previous experience in Industrial Design, I wanted to go further and work on the Services and Experiences between customers and organisations. The idea of combining my skills in design, interpersonal communication and organisation to create services and cover user’s needs drove to expand my knowledge of User Experience and further in Service Design. By joining workshops, teaming up on hackathons, and taking courses, I keep myself up to date with the latest cases studies, trends and design services.

    User Experience DesignerClara D Ltd
    London, United KingdomFreelance
    As a freelancer, I worked on projects end to end. Working closely with clients and managing the creativity, design and if required the production. My passion for design drove me from Industrial design towards graphics and more recently service and experience design. My goal is to work full time as a Service and Experience designer, transferring and learning skills from one field to another. How am I doing it? Byt learning by doing, which involve taking courses, attending workshops and working with multi-disciplinary teams on side projects.
