Multidisciplinary Design Lead & AI Creative

For 13+ years I've helped brands communicate, connect, and grow through design. Today I combine branding, digital experiences, and AI workflows to help teams move faster without losing the human thinking behind the work. Based in Amsterdam, working with teams wherever they are.

Operationalizing AI for Design Efficiency

I don't just use AI for design; I build custom workflows and agents that automate repetitive tasks, allowing the team to focus on high-impact strategic design.

" The Designer that asks better questions will always create better outcomes."

My design process is no guesswork, just a clear path from ideas results.

My process involves a layered approach to understanding client needs, project context, and audience behavior, followed by structured concept development and iterative design to ensure clear communication, strong functionality, and refined visual outcomes.

01.

Strategic Discovery

Deep-dive analysis of user behavior and business goals to build a roadmap that eliminates guesswork.

02.

AI-Accelerated Ideation

Rapid prototyping and concept generation using generative tools to explore more directions in less time.

03.

Feedback & Refinement

Collaboration is key. I review the design with you, gather feedback, and refine the work to align with your expectations and goals. This ensures the design reflects your vision.

04.

Data driven prototyping

Iterative testing and polishing to ensure the final product isn't just beautiful, but compliant, accessible, and high-converting.

05.

Delivery

Once everything is finalized, the project is launched and delivered to you. I also provide guidance or support for ongoing maintenance to ensure long-term success.
