​Hello there, I'm Anke. I'm a UX designer with loads of experience. Creating products and services that people find useful and delightful is one of my greatest joys. I love to put my skills to good use by working on projects that make an actual difference in people's lives. Here is what I bring:
​
-
Over 15 years experience researching, prototyping, designing, and delivering customer-centric products
​
-
Ability to grasp and distill highly complex issues and translate them into clean, focused, understandable solutions
​
-
Natural collaborator and excellent communicator who works closely with cross-functional teams in person or remotely
​
-
Self-starter who thrives in dynamic and deadline-driven environment​s
​​
-
Expert knowledge of Figma, Sketch, Invision, Principle, etc., but nothing beats pen & paper
​
-
Evangelist of best UX practices to other designers, engineers and product managers
​
-
Affinity for establishing design systems focused on consistency, color use, typography and minute details
​
-
Learning & growth mindset – natural curiosity that leads to always wonder how to make an experience better for users​
​​
-
Optimistic about the potential of societal change
​
And yes, I also enjoy life outside of work. I'm big into traveling, nature, hanging with my family, art, sauerkraut, skiing, board-games, friends - new and old, cabins, city-biking, volunteering, learning about people and cultures, our dog, reading, all things orange, hiking, the ocean and so much more.
