My skills and interests revolve around social change and the interaction between people through interactive storytelling, serious gaming, and gamification, particularly in relation to health.
I collaborate with users. Take their quality of life into account. Map contexts. Generate ideas. Design concepts. Build prototypes. Test scenarios. Measure effects. Report conclusions. Draw infographics. Present results. Reflect on processes. Connect groups. Develop theories. And teach students.
In my work this takes shape in epic experiences, gameplay, product-interaction, persuasion, debate, workshops, websites, graphics, and animations. In my personal life I enjoy music and sports.
