Born in France, raised in Sweden as the youngest of four kids. Nowadays freelance designer and Hyper Island student, combining design talent with technical skills. Although working mainly with design I put great value in understanding the technical efforts needed to realize my designs. Basically speaking: I don't code but I like understanding programming because it makes me a better designer (and the developers I work with happier).
While some people have a set plan of where and who to be in 5 years. I haven't. What I do have though is my belief that through focus on constant improvement and new learnings I will end up doing just fine. One might even say that I'm aiming to one day become what Braden Kowitz, design partner at Google calls a Unicorn:
“- a magical designer who can solve all problems.”
Easier said than done, I know. My way of getting there will take off in what all my design is based on; curiosity for new things, problem solving, having fun and collaboration with passionate people.
Hoping to work more with all sorts of interactive design, from mobile apps to games, but foremost I hope my work will result in cool, useful designs that supports the desired purpose and creates a value for me and others.
The future looks promising, lets go places.
