About

Hi. Do you want to design for the future? With a background in UX and NVDA I focus on transformation during the climate crisis.

Being a curious mind, I manage high levels of input with a knack for ideas and aesthetics. I value solidarity over competition, eye-level communication and try to be fossil fuel's worst nightmare. Nice to meet you!

Love reading, love books. People in Berlin are notoriously late, so you'll find me at the bar lost in the warm light of a Kindle. Wanna be GoodReads friends or have a tip? Let me know.
