5 of My Favorite Projects
AdMix – UX, Research, Systems Thinking
A browser extension that lets users curate and share ads by organizing them into playlists, turning ad blocking into an expressive, user-driven experience. I led the platform's UX and visual design, from research and prototyping to high-fidelity handoff for development.
Algae-based Air Filter – Product Design, Biodesign, Research
A speculative product exploring sustainable air filtration through living materials and cultural identity. I designed the system and product concept, envisioning a home-scale, circular solution for climate resilience.
Project Poldergeist – Animation, Research, Visual Communication
A research-driven animation project exploring cultural narratives of climate adaptation in the Netherlands and beyond. I contributed to visual metaphor and storyline development and animated key sections of the final video.
Big Ass Fruits – Product Design, Prototyping, Fabrication
A playful product design project exploring 3D modeling, fabrication, and branding. I led prototyping and visual identity development, bringing the concept from sketch to small-batch production and sales.
The DP - Graphic Design, Illustration, Visual Communication
A series of article cover designs for The DP newspaper, bringing written stories to life through visual design. I created custom illustrations and cover designs, translating article topics into clear, engaging visuals.
