UX Designer & Speaker

UX designer and meetup organizer who likes tech and horses. A talkative Swedish vagabond currently based in Stockholm. IT Woman of the Year 2015. For me being a user experience designer means I care about making products that work really, really well. I think technology should work for people, not the other way around.

I love being a part of almost every aspect of product development; from identifying user needs and opportunities, ideation, facilitation workshops, sketching, wireframing, prototyping, usability testing, UI design, pair programming front end to final user feedback. Then going back and doing it all over in the pursuit of happy users and the dream of building a something really great. I believe the best products are made in close nit agile teams.
