Go1
Since Feb 2024
Blinkist
Oct 2019 - Feb 2024
After getting acquired by the double unicorn Go1, I now serve as VP Design, I lead a 30+ people team across Brand, Product Design, and Research & Insights, responsible for all Go1 products (Go1, Blinkist, CoorpAcademy, Anders Pink).
As Director of Design at Blinkist, I led a team across Product Design, Brand Design, and Research & Insights to deliver delightful short-form learning experiences to ∼800k paying subscribers and over 22 million users.
Flaconi
Mar 2018 - Oct 2019
Flaconi hired me to build a UX design function from scratch, which I scaled to a team of 4 designers and 2 UX Researchers. Further, I led the foundation for Flaconi’s first mobile app and Design System.
EPIC
Mar 2017 - Jan 2018
As UX Designer at EPIC, a small boutique design & strategy agency in San Francisco, I worked with a range of startups and larger tech companies (e.g. Autodesk) on projects ranging from early-stage concept development to larger redesigns.
Aside from those milestones, I worked as an independent contractor and freelance designer for a number of smaller and bigger companies in Berlin and San Francisco, including the first mobile app concept for KUGU, and learning app improvements for Cornelsen Lernen.
I also actively mentor design students at TU Munich and UC Berkeley and on ADPList.
