I research and design to empower the creation of new perspectives on complex subjects.

My work investigates complex societal challenges through design. Characteristic to my approach is designing to enable stakeholders to gather around a subject, get inspired and contribute knowledge from their perspective. I design conversations that wander beyond words by crafting interactive prototypes and experiments which contribute to a fruitful dialog.

I am a social designer / design researcher / creative technologist with a MSc in industrial design, specialized in Constructive Design Research.

things i investigated or created include:
