About me

I am a recently graduated Industrial Design Engineer from the University of Twente, where I followed the track Human Technology Relations. During my studies I learned among other things about product development, mechanical engineering aspects, marketing, aesthetics and ergonomics. This was done not only by following courses but also by combining the skills into projects. 

My favourite phases of the design process are the conceptualisation and defining phase. In these phases I enjoy mostly: ideation, design sketching, modelling, graphic design, aesthetic design, UI and UX.
Next to this, I enjoy working together and organising the project, where I maintain an overview of the assignment and the planning.
