About Me
I'm a UX/UI Designer from Sweden. I’m equiped with knowledge and experience within User Research, UX/UI design, Usability Testing and Interaction Design. I believe a good designer uses empathy for their users, along with a sound design process as their greatest tools.

I enjoy the process of coming up with design innovations and problem solving where I can utilise my passion for design and creative thinking. I take pride in appreciating each individual’s uniqueness and I get a kick from doing things no one has ever considered before.
