Personal
First of all, welcome to my portfolio.
I recently completed my Master’s degree in Product Development at the University of Antwerp. Throughout this journey, I have developed a strong interest in designing meaningful products and experiences that respond to real needs and create added value for people.
I would describe myself as an open-minded and positive person who is grateful for the opportunities I get. I value my friends and family, enjoy travelling, and love finding inspiration from the world around me but even more from new perspectives outside my familiar surroundings.
As a designer, I see myself as a true team player. I am open to different perspectives, enjoy collaborating with others, and believe that listening is one of the most important skills within product development. Since products are designed for people and their environments, I believe it is essential to involve different voices and viewpoints throughout the design process.
What continues to inspire me about product development is the opportunity to design with purpose. For me, design is about creating positive impact, improving people’s quality of life and developing thoughtful, responsible solutions. It is a field where creativity, research, technology and human needs come together, and where continuous learning plays an important role.
