With over four years of hands-on experience in User Experience (UX) design, I am dedicated to creating intuitive digital solutions that bridge the gap between technology and people. My journey into UX design stems from a diverse background in healthcare, research, and customer service, providing me with a unique perspective on crafting meaningful user experiences. Passionate about the intersection of design and technology, I thrive on solving complex problems creatively while staying true to ethical design processes and principles.
At DOCYET GmbH, I honed my skills in conducting user research, developing personas, and creating wireframes and interactive prototypes using industry-standard tools like Figma and Adobe XD. One of my proudest achievements was leading the implementation of our company's design system, enhancing visual consistency and fostering collaboration across multidisciplinary teams. My commitment to continuous learning drives me to stay updated on the latest UX trends and methodologies, ensuring that I deliver high-quality solutions that meet user needs effectively.
As a proactive collaborator with strong communication skills, I excel in cross-functional environments, contributing to the definition of project requirements and playing an integral role in team success. I am eager to leverage my expertise in UX design to tackle new challenges and make a meaningful impact in a dynamic and innovative organisation. Let's connect and explore how we can collaborate to create exceptional user experiences together!research, information technology and customer service to facilitate my design process, from discovery through to delivery.
