Hi, thank you for stopping by! I'm a Product Designer at De Bijenkorf. Specializing in data-informed design, I collaborate closely with our data and experiment teams, with the goal of making it seamless for our customers to find their perfect product.
As an end-to-end Designer, I seek to holistically understand problems before solving them. From talking directly to users and asking pivotal questions, through empathizing with stakeholders and understanding the needs at play, to analyzing and contextualizing actual usage data, I firmly believe that the devil is in the details – a philosophy evident in both my systematic approach to problem-solving and the nuanced solutions I provide.
Beyond design, personal growth is my fuel. Buddhism and yoga play significant roles in my life. A Gemini at heart, you might find me one moment lighting up a dance floor with Lindy Hop 💃🏻, and seeking solace via a forest walk for some 'me time' in the next 🌳.
I feel grateful that I've found my career as a Product Designer, solving real problems, and witnessing the positive impact of my work, which gives my life profound meaning .
