I’m a software designer living in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. I’m currently Head of Design at Cubby, where I help shape a new self-storage platform for operators building and scaling their businesses.

Before Cubby, I worked at Shopify on Markets Pro, a 0→1 product that laid the foundation for what later became Managed Markets. The work focused on systems for international expansion and helped shape how Shopify supports merchants operating across borders.

Earlier, I led the design systems team at BRYTER and worked with startups at different stages of growth. Alongside my role, I design and ship iOS apps, staying close to the craft and building products end to end.

Outside of work, I spend time on photography and share some selected works from my trips on my photo blog.
