  • About

    Current work


    At the moment I am working at Nokia Mobile Phones. My work includes aspects of visual and functional product design and concepting. Combining consumer and societal trend analysis between the user and the device. Spanning from design skills visualization, presentation to scripting of user experience. I have the knowledge to create products that fulfil the requirements of ergonomics and ease of use. During my career I have turned several abstract ideas to the functional digital products concepts for further productization. At Nokia I have visualized location based information and advertisement solutions for Ovi maps and mobile phone, thinking how to visualize cloud services on mobile phone, creating mobile learning services for emerging markets and redesigning interface and UX solutions for Qt Creator sw (SDK). My privet work has won several international awards.

    - Concept Development
    - Visual Prototyping, Mocup
    - Visual and Interactive Storytelling
    - User-centered Design and User Experience
