I am a User-Centered & UX design consultant and facilitator from London. My job is to help companies to create products with a great user experience. With more than 15 years of experience in the creative industry, I had the opportunity to work with a wide range of clients including Sony, Sky, Virgin and Barclays, News UK just to name a few. Customer satisfaction and a desire to create quality products that people want, has been of interest to me, even before I started my masters degree in product design at the University of the Arts in Berlin.
