FUN FACT
Outside of work, a lot of my time goes to my motorcycle and my 4 cats (a proud cat lady here, I can’t promise my cats won’t interrupt meetings 🤓).
A LITTLE BIT OF MY JOURNEY
Art has always been a big part of who I am. Drawing, painting, creating: it’s been (and still is) my way of communicating with the world.
Design naturally came into my life as an extension of that: I’ve turned that passion into a career, allowing me to shape ideas and solve real problems without losing the artistic side that drives me.
Over the past few years, I’ve been living as a digital nomad, traveling alone through many countries outside of Europe. This experience pushed me outside my comfort zone countless times: to adapt, listen carefully, and make quick and creative decisions, both in life and at work.
In the professional world, I’ve collaborated with multidisciplinary teams and to be honest I like to be in the middle of the conversation: between product, engineering, and the user. I don’t have all the answers, but I ask questions (a looooot of them). And I believe that’s how impactful solutions are found.
