About
Introduction
From an early age, creativity has been a central part of my life. At school, I explored crafts and artistic projects, which naturally led me to pursue a secondary education in design.
During my voluntary social year, I discovered my ambition to use design as a way to help people by making their lives easier and more intuitive, allowing them to focus on what truly matters. My Bachelor’s program in Digital Product Design & Development expanded my expertise by combining design thinking methods with technical knowledge in programming and microcontrollers, equipping me with the skills to build prototypes and iterate quickly. Working on user-centered projects further strengthened my ability to design with empathy and purpose.
Currently, in my Master’s in Strategic Design, I am building on this foundation with future thinking, advanced research skills, and management knowledge. This enables me to balance innovation with feasibility—designing not only what is possible, but also what is impactful and realistic.
