Experience 🔬

USER EXPERIENCE Designer
The ultimate content and social media marketing tool. This software service helps their clients to create and share better performing content. I put most effort in identifying our user’s pain points by conducting research, e.g. usability tests and interviews. Once done, I’m also responsible to create crisp user interfaces fitting to the user needs.

Digital product designer
Helping our people in doing what they do best. That’s the slogan of the Digital Transformation department I was part of. We made several digital solutions to automate processes within the company. My main responsibility was creating and validating concepts that could be useful in the daily lives of a KLM employee.

USER EXPERIENCE DESIGNER (INTERN)
For my graduation internship, I researched what extra value the KLM app (connected to the internet) could have for their customers while flying. I’ve been talking to many stakeholders and real customers at the airport who were waiting for their flight. It was a great experience to find out what it was like to be part of such large company.

DIGITAL DESIGNER
A small web design agency in Eindhoven, where I started as a student. This was my start in creating websites. Here, I mainly filled my days with designing responsive websites and developing the front-end.
Education 🎓
Kappersacademie Heerlen X Barberroad
2020 — 2021
Old school barbering class
Started off as a hobby by visiting nice barbershops. Then I got interested in the techniques and such, but later found out it had a lot to do with design too. Listening to the customer’s wishes, more talking during the process and leaving them satisfied with a good haircut. Honestly, it’s a little design project!
Fontys University of Applied Sciences
END 2013 — MID 2018
ICT & Media Design (cum laude)
I followed this study for four years in Eindhoven and accomplished it with great success. It was a great experience and challenge because of its diversity. Here, I found passion for UX and therefore focused on how to conduct proper research, identifying user needs combined with creating fitting concepts.

A deeper dive into the Design Thinking process. The minor was mainly focused on user research techniques and mapping out user pain points. This course made sure I wanted to become an expert in user experience design.

Coosto: Intuitive dashboard creation
The creation of dashboards still seemed to be quite complex and time consuming. Therefore, I’m doing another deep dive into the project and gave the second iteration a kickstart.
KLM: The world of a mechanic
What does a day look like for a mechanic? To find that out, I wore my blue overall and worked a nightshift together with the people who maintained airplanes.
