Based in

Amsterdam, NL

I am an industrial designer with a passion for technology

and craftsmanship. My work is driven by a passion to explore

and conceive of new ideas that improve people's lives in meaningful ways. My work spans a diverse range of fields, from audio and healthcare to products for urban environments, allowing me to continuously explore new contexts, technologies, and ways of thinking. For me, the process is just as important as the outcome.


I aim to create designs that balance emotional, aesthetic, and cultural considerations with functional and technological requirements. Reaching that balance often requires an open and iterative process of conversation, sketching, prototyping, visualization, and testing.


Through this exploration, I look for ideas that are not only functional and considered, but also meaningful to the people who interact with them
