Design emerges from a dialogue between disciplines. It aims to make thoughts, information, or visions accessible to a broader audience.
By combining emerging technology and a strategic design approach, I want to deepen this function of design.
I am currently working as a senior designer at IBM ix in Berlin. Additionally, I am lecturing at the University of Applied Sciences Dresden and appear as an occasional speaker at public events.
