As an Information Architect (IA) - I apply user-centered research and design skills to understand users and to create user-centered solutions for my clients.

My work is developing large scaled website structures/ information architecture. I display my expertise in the User Experience Planning (UXP) specific skills and apply this expertise to my work.

In every project I am strive to develope a holistic / integrated view to deliver user-centered solutions. A close connection to the client is therefore existential. For me as a member of the design team it is self-evident to demonstrate basic proficiencies of the core skills and to act in accordance with the Core Values of my clients.
