Cool head, warm heart, working hands
I specialize on the strategy, concept, design and implementation of digital products.
I love to collaborate within a team of diverse people and skillsets to ensure results that are viable, feasible and usable. I believe in “shipping to learn”. I combine Business knowledge with a deep UX understanding and mature knowledge in Front-End Development. And some even say I’m fun to work with!
I currently work as a Product Manager for Ricardo (part of SMG). In my free time I run an online magazine about mechanical watches called Three-Quarter Plate. I am also the founder of FlexDrive, Switzerland’s comparison website for car subscription.
