HI HOWDY, I'M KIRSTEN

Berlin, Germany

BFA in Design at UT Austin | Akadamie für Illustration und Design

I’ve spent the better part of my career shaping brands and interfaces that are not only easy on the eyes, but genuinely easy to use. Starting out in graphic design and illustration, I’ve since grown into product design roles where I’ve led everything from UI systems to cross-functional collaboration—especially in fast-moving startup environments—with a focus on thoughtful, research-informed work.

I still believe design should feel as good as it looks, and I’m always curious about new ways to make products more intuitive, more human, and a little more delightful.
