I am currently in my final year of studying Service Design at Savonia University of Applied Sciences, while working as a sign language interpreter. I’ve found the magic of co-creation and really enjoy facilitating workshops. I’ve gained experience in project management, customer journey mapping, UX, visualizations and more. Have look at some of my projects!
I’m a freelance illustrator with hopes of being able to spread art, colors and playfulness to the world. Take a peek at my work and don’t hesitate to be in contact!
