UX Design Lead at Holidu

Note: I am not using this platform anymore. You shouldn't too. Please reach out directly through Linkedin :)

I am a product designer, based in Munich, Germany.

I currently work for Holidu as a UX Design Lead, crafting digital products that will finally make the search and booking of vacation rentals easy. Previously, I worked at Inofab Health, disrupting the respiratory care industry.

I hold a Master of Design degree from IIT Institute of Design where I specialized in interaction design, design research, and innovation strategy.

In my spare time, I enjoy volunteering to inspire new design thinkers, tinkering with my DIY 3D printer, and playing board games.
