As a design researcher and user experience designer based in Eindhoven, Netherlands, I am driven by a profound curiosity to explore novel relationships between technology, humans, and the more-than-human world. With a keen interest in futuring techniques, AI ethics, surveillance capitalism, data practices, and more-than-human theory, I delve into the intricate interplay between these realms.
My expressions range from organizing and deploying workshops that physicalize relationships and quirky exhibitions to creative talks and lectures. I strive to explore new techniques to express my thoughts, ask questions, and involve people in projects, whether through data probes in the form of tablecloths or interactive experiences in the form of websites. This striving for exploration derives from a general sense of curiosity and critical thinking.
Currently, I work at an Industrial Design company in Eindhoven while also being active as a coach in the AI working group, Artifice, at Eindhoven University of Technology, bridging theory and practice. I am competent at preparing and conducting engaging workshops and interviews that cover challenging topics, providing a safe environment where users can be completely themselves.
With a deep enthusiasm for design research, I am always eager to learn new skills and experience unfamiliar situations, particularly in the realm of foresight and futuring techniques. As an Austrian pursuing a design dream, I bring a unique perspective and a relentless drive to reimagine paths and uncover underlying patterns in complex issues.
