I design products and services that people love to use.


Human-centered Design UX/UI Design Management
Service Design New Product Development




People are at the heart of of my work. With them (users, team mates, stakeholders), I design products and services that people love to use. My fingerprints can be found all over much-loved products used by many, like the Financial Times and Lexology. Today I focus on impact-oriented, ethical design and innovation. It’s seen me partner with organisations like the United Nations, Norwegian Refugee Council and the White Helmets on projects that tackle some of the world’s most urgent and complex problems.
