Design approach

How I do my best work.

Joining cross-functional teams

For me, nothing beats the momentum of a team where everyone contributes with their unique skills.

Using AI to boost efficiency

With the rise of AI-powered tools, I now keep improving and speeding up my workflow on a weekly basis.

Always prioritizing accessibility

Since taking my first course in accessibility in 2011, it’s been a cornerstone of my daily design work.

Sketching together early on

I’ve often found that sketching together is a catalyst for decision-making. It’s fast, inclusive, and fun!

Constantly learning and sharing

Whenever possible, I try to help other designers by sharing my skill set and also ask them for help.

Keeping digital assets tidy

Messy Figma files and poor documentation will drain your energy. I go the extra mile to prevent this.
