About

I'm a Interaction Designer & UX Engineer passionate about exploring the little details and interactions no one asked for.

In a past life, I was an Industrial Designer and primarily worked on physical products. I cherish this time and always try to bring more of the world around us, back to the interfaces in front of us.

Right now I'm doing my master's in Interaction Design at the Umeå Institute of Design from which I'll graduate in June 2023.
