I bring structure and clarity to complex digital products.

I design and build product foundations, design systems, and communication layers. Built to scale, designed with purpose.

Strategy & Consulting

I help product teams find clarity. Whether you're launching a new product or untangling an existing one, I work with you to define priorities, structure decisions, and focus effort where it matters.

Product & UX Design

End-to-end product design for complex platforms. From discovery and information architecture to high-fidelity UI. I focus on the foundational layer: navigation, communication, core workflows. The parts that shape everything else.

Design Systems

I build and scale the systems that hold products together. Components, patterns, principles, and governance. Not just a library, but the thinking that keeps your product consistent as it grows.

Web Development

Fast, well-built websites and landing pages in Webflow or Framer. Clean code, responsive, on-brand. I also work with developers on custom builds when the project calls for it.

About me

I'm a product designer based in Hamburg with over 15 years of experience designing complex platforms and the systems that hold them together.

I make products work at their core: information architecture, cross-platform logic, communication systems, and product foundations. Across platforms like XING, Container xChange, and Solvares. The structural decisions that shape everything else.

I care about solving the right problems, not adding more features. About systems that last, not screens that impress for a week.

Lately I've been pushing into AI as a design and build tool. Vibe coding side projects, using AI for rapid prototyping and product thinking, and forming honest opinions about where these tools genuinely extend what designers can do. I build and share when something's worth it.
