User Experience Design teacher
At the university of applied sciences, I teach in the Communication and Multimedia Design program, where I help students explore the world of User Experience Design, Human-Centered Design, and Interaction Design. Together with a small, passionate core team, I inspire them to conceptualize, design, and create interactive digital products – from responsive websites for desktop and mobile to interactive installations and physical devices with embedded screens. I love guiding students as they experiment, iterate, and grow into confident designers who bring meaningful digital experiences to life.

At Concept 7, I worked as a senior UX designer on a range of digital products. I designed a new e-commerce platform for Onkenhout, crafted an informational website for AKQA, and helped shape LCMS – the Netherlands’ National Crisis Management System – for the Netherlands Institute for Public Safety. Each project allowed me to combine strategic thinking with hands-on design to create meaningful digital experiences.
