Vita


I am a UX/UI designer with great experience creating cutting edge visuals and solving complex design issues.

My professional experience ranges across various German and US OEMs. Over the past 10 years I have worked on concept cars,
showcases and serial production vehicles, covering all steps from ideation to execution and production.

I work with international teams daily, using conferencing services and travelling extensively. Speaking fluent German, English and Russian enables me me to manage this without issues.

The future of technology and its benefits for all mankind are one of my greatest passions.
I am excited to be part of this evolution within the automotive industry every day.

Portfolio

Here are some examples of my work which are also shown in the slideshow above.

INGOLSTADT, 2014 <br> OWN PROJECT - ILLUSTRATION AND DESIGN FOR A CHILDREN’S BOOK.<br> Illustration and design for a children’s book. The project was initiated on crowdfunding platform „Startnext“. To bring the final artwork to life I coordinated all details including print production, launching my own publishing „Sonderfarbe“ and distributing everything via own webshop, amazon and Facebook.

While working on automotive interfaces every day, tons of ideas pop up which never make it to the screen. So I designed this vision to visualize at least some of them as keyscreens for a head unit system. And since all the work I create so is disclosed for years, this can give a brief glimpse on the field I have been working in passionately for the past 4 years.
