Methods & Tools
By working for small and large organizations for the last 8+ years, and starting two of my own companies, I have experienced different challenges, situations and tools.
Through these experiences, I have learned that there is not one way forward. Instead, the methods and tools are different depending on the team, the project and its constraints.
I therefore approach tasks and projects with two ears, willing to learn and adjust as I go.
My guiding principles
No matter the challenge or team, I always have a set of guiding work principles.
Collaboration
Working as a team where everyone feels safe is essential. I bring an authentic attitude and feel enjoyment working in a diverse environment. Collaboration with people across different disciplines is at the core of my process.
Communication
Alignment with stakeholders to get a shared understanding of what a successful outcome looks like and when it needs to happen combined with transparency during the whole process is key to success.
Design thinking
Exploring different paths before picking and refining a particular direction. I am comfortable with the nonlinear and iterative nature of digital product development.
Listening over Selling to customers
Relentlessly taking a customer perspective, putting the customer at the heart of business decisions leads to meaningful products that consumers want.
