About

Although I trained in applied neuropsychology, I have spent the last 7 years working on problems concerning UX Design, Cognitive Ergonomics and building ethical AI products. During the last few years, I have had the opportunity to use insights from neuroscience, behavioral science and psychology to help businesses improve their user experience and make informed design decisions. Industries that I have worked with: # DigitalTwin # HMI # Automobile in-vehicle UX Research # e-commerce # Fintech Some topics that I care about are music, neuroaesthetics, inclusive design and human-machine-interfaces.
