I've been playing music most of my life and have worked professionally as a freelance musician for about 15 years. I've released a ton of my own music and toured most of Europe playing saxophone in different bands.
I've always been interested in the world of design and have often designed posters in Photoshop with very limited knowledge of the software. I've also designed several websites in WordPress and Squarespace, but never really knew anything about design principles.
After a detour as a body therapist, helping people with anxiety, depression, stress through advanced massage techniques and therapy I discovered the world of UX Design and immediately got excited. I got drawn in by the possibility of making products that are useful and helps people in their day-to-day lives. To be able to speak with users, implement their feedback and create beautiful products was just what I wanted to do!
Since then I completed the Google UX Design Professional Certificate and most recently, CareerFoundry's UX Design Program.
Being a good listener and empathizing with people was something I learned while being a body therapist. It comes natural to me, but in order to help people with anxiety, depression and stress you have to be good at asking the right questions to get to the core of the challenge and see where the underlying trauma is. This is something I bring to UX Design, when searching for the core of the user's problem in order to see the solution.
