Curious, precise, and contemporary. I create bold visuals with Swiss-Scandinavian flair and digital edge, turning stories into striking concepts.
About
I've gathered a lot of webdesign experience over the last 4 year by following the latest UI/UX trends and trying to implement relevant designs into my media portfolio. With over 3000 revisions I feel comfortable to say that I know what works and what doesn't (for my sector). But I will always have a passion for digital webdesign where I can enhance the user experience/interface.

My passion for visual design started with photography. I could experiment with what an image is and how it can tell a story. As part of my starting freelancing career I expanded into the world of moving visuals, videography. What started with an interest in cinematography evolved into a practical skill to tell a story with timing, sound and composition. All that for local clients with different media needs.

Branding is a specialisation of mine because I do not just design, I can create a story. A system that flows down to all the designed elements that a brand needs.

My Role
As a designer, I balance leadership with teamwork. I am goal-oriented, structured, and open to feedback, ensuring high-quality results while valuing collaboration and input from others. This approach allows me to guide projects effectively while fostering creativity and strong communication within the team.
Translation
Concepts are transformed into fresh and relevant designs that go beyond the flat surface. By combining creativity, technical expertise/interest, and vision, each design dares to surprise while aligning seamlessly with its real-world application. This ensures the result effectively fulfills its purpose and delivers genuine value in practice
Minimalistic
maximalist
I approach design with openness, and politeness, always valuing collaboration and respect. At the same time, I dream boldly and aim for the highest possible outcomes in my work. I strive to push boundaries and achieve excellence without becoming overconfident or unrealistic. This balance allows me to be thoughtful, ambitious, grounded yet visionary.
