about me

Currently I am working as an industrial designer at Smart Design. I have a Master of Arts in Advanced Product Design from Umea Institute of Design.

I have worked in a variety of projects: from household appliances up to medical, transportation and robotic applications, and in collaboration with companies such as Philips, OXO, Toyota, Alstom, Scandinavian Airlines and Fresenius Medical Care.

I think one of my strongest skills is to be able to connect with people, understand them, and translate those findings into an innovative and meaningful design solution that is respectful to the environment, as well as to cultural differences.
