I’m a designer, always looking to understand the ‘why.’
What I love most is ‘systems thinking’: working across teams to see the bigger picture. I design future-states, build prototypes, and run tests that help teams unpack strategy, get aligned, and make decisions faster.
I thrive where continuous learning, curiosity, and collaboration are intrinsic to an organization.
I was born in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, but raised in the great-wide west of Canada.
In my free time, I love spending time with my son, smelling flowers in the backcountry, and attempting a regular yoga practice. 🤸♀️
An abbreviated work history
UX Designer
SAP Canada ~10 years ago
I co-led a design vision for SAP Cloud Analytics with two other designers resulting in a patented solution that is a key part of the platform today.
I initiated a cross-platform design system for enterprise data visualization software, aligning internationally distributed teams on standard interaction patterns and foundational components.
Senior UX Designer
Hootsuite ~6 years ago
I initiated research, journey-mapping, and a design vision for the mobile teams, resulting in two releases and an increase in customer engagement by 60%.
I made the native mobile apps more accessible by applying WCAG 2.0 AA standards, helping start an inclusive design practice on the team.
UX Manager
BCLC Apr 2025
I led research, journey-mapping, and opportunity prioritization on lotto players’ prize-claim process, called “Winning Experiences,” resulting in service-design changes, making prize claims more convenient and reducing business cost.
I initiated a design system, a first at BCLC, through cross-functional workshops, paving the way for a more robust and scalable UI across all digital properties.
Senior Product Designer
Thinkific ~2 years ago and presently
I led designs for Thinkfic’s first ever agentic AI experience from beta to general availablity.
I helped to de-risk the beta launch of a new mobile learning app by running customer interviews to unpack an overlooked user segment. Insights influenced marketing strategy with beta customers and informed prioritization of the roadmap.
