I make complex
products feel clear.

I design financial products that people can understand and use with confidence. I bring research, UX and visual design together to make complex workflows clearer and easier to use.

And what we delivered together.

The app is not live yet and the project is covered by a non-disclosure agreement. I’ll share more once it’s live and I can discuss the work publicly.

I’m a product designer working across the whole design process: research and problem definition, interaction and visual design, prototyping, usability testing and seeing the work through to delivery. That is what full-stack design means to me: connecting user needs, business goals and the quality of the finished product.

I grew up drawing buildings. Later, I designed houses in Belgium and the interiors of private aircraft in Zürich. Moving into product design brought those instincts with me: structure before surface, proportion and attention to detail. Software gave me a way to test ideas and learn from them sooner.

I can also write code. As a designer, that helps me understand how front-end and back-end developers think, recognise technical constraints early and design feasible solutions. I can explain design decisions clearly, work through implementation details with developers and contribute code when useful. That technical fluency strengthens both my design work and the way I collaborate with the team.

I’ve built a design system used by eight teams and helped shape a shared platform for more than 1,200 people. What matters to me is that people can find what they need and get through their everyday work more easily.

How I Work

The environment I do my best work in

01

In the room

My best work happens in person, at a whiteboard, sitting next to the people who are going to build it. Remote works. Together works better.

02

Flat, not layered

Small teams, short decision paths, no design by committee. I would rather ship something and learn from it than present something and wait for it.

03

Working with developers

I work closely with front-end and back-end developers to make design decisions clear and technically feasible. Understanding their constraints helps me discuss trade-offs, review the implementation and contribute code when it helps the team.

04

Hands-on, whatever the title

I have led a team of four and I have been the only designer in the room. Both suit me. The only version that does not is the one where I stop designing.

What’s next

Banking, finance and fintech

Clear interfaces matter most when the decisions matter.

My experience spans investment products, trading workflows and the systems that connect them. I understand how much detail sits behind a seemingly simple action, and I design ways to make that complexity easier to navigate.

I’m looking for contract opportunities where I can contribute directly: understanding a complex workflow, improving an existing product or helping a team build a consistent design system.

I’m also interested in how AI can make those products more useful, with clear explanations and enough context for people to decide when to trust the result.

Have something
in mind?

I’m especially interested in contract roles in banking, finance and fintech. I bring experience designing trading platforms, investment tools and enterprise design systems, with my hands still on the work.

Based near Zürich. Also open to permanent senior product and UX roles and independent projects. Let’s talk about what your team needs.
