Experience & Interaction Design
I obsess over how things feel. The concept, the interaction, the moment someone touches your product and just gets it. From XR to web to spatial experiences.
Fifteen years of shaping digital experiences at the highest level. As UX Director at Monks, I led a creative team across three continents, picking up 59 awards along the way. Recent years took me deeper into emerging tech: creative directing a boxing platform, designing spatial interiors on Quest, and exploring AI on VR devices.
Somewhere along the way, I stopped wanting to hand things off. I wanted to make them. Now I work from Amsterdam as a Design Engineer -- same strategic thinking, same obsession with craft, but with my hands on the code. React, TypeScript, Three.js, SwiftUI. This site? Designed and built by me.
