Berlin based designer building my career navigating the excitement of hyper-growth design teams. I am working full-time for Shopify after 4 years at Europes fastest growing FinTech N26.
I believe in high quality, innovative products and was responsible for N26’s global Mastercard and Visa design and packaging, successfully shipping over 3.5 million cards to customers in 23 markets. I crafted the user experience across physical and digital touch points for customer growth from
80 000 to 3.5 million in just over 3 years.
With Shopify I am kicking off the marketing design team for financial and money related products.
