Born in Amsterdam and raised in The Netherlands, I now call Seattle home. I have spent over 25 years designing and shipping products people love. With a M.S. degree in Industrial Design Engineering from Delft University of Technology, I’ve built my career designing global products and leading various design teams across geographies and time zones. I’ve shipped AI-powered features used by millions and fostered design team cultures rooted in empathy, clarity and craft. Outside of work, you’ll find me playing piano or guitar, walking, hiking, paddle boarding, skiing and spending time with my partner and kids.
