About
Designer, prototyper, problem solver and videogame enthusiast
I am an interaction / UX Designer from the Netherlands. With a background in Industrial Design (BSc) from the University of Technology Eindhoven in the Netherlands, and a master’s degree in Entertainment Technology (MET) from Carnegie Mellon University. I love to get involved in multidisciplinary fields, from art and design to programming and electronics. I worked on various interactive projects as a designer and developer, and collaborated with companies such as TATRC, HITLAB New Zealand, ATR-Promotions, 2K Games and Firaxis Games. At the moment, I am partnering with PartTimeEvil working on a mobile puzzle game called Puzzle Football for the iPhone as a pixel artist, UI/UX designer and game developer.
My areas of expertise are interactive products, developing (serious) games and exploring new areas for interactive experiences and simulations. In my spare time I like to travel, play RTS and FPS games, trying out delicious cuisine and practice the art of Kendo.
