User Experience
My working manifesto
Outcome and impact over output
I measure success by the difference a product makes for people – not by how much stories were implemented.
Solving real problems over shipping features
I aim to create products that address real needs – not just features that look good or fill a backlog.
Collaboration and professionalism over ego and silos
I thrive in environments where cross-functional collaboration, quality and shared ownership matter more than individual agendas.
Continuous learning over fixed expertise
With over 20 years of experience, I stay curious and open – because good design is never finished.
Clarity and empathy over assumptions and opinions
I design with empathy, evidence, and real user understanding – not based on guesswork or personal preferences.

I believe the best experiences are born from a mix of empathy, creativity and clarity.
I use that blend to create products that move people – and move the business forward.

Customer and user centricity begins in the mind. But it must not stay there! If it is not consistently implemented within the product development process, it simply remains a good idea.

Many companies do not yet use the experiences that customers and users have with their products and services as a real sales argument or unique selling point!
Companies need to develop a deep understanding of their customers and users, actively promote a culture of openness and continuous improvement and ensure that decisions are data-driven and made with a long-term perspective.
