👋 Hi, my name is Wouter
🌤 ux designer by day
🌘 icon designer by night
I've been a designer for over 24 years
The last 11 of which in the field of UX

What I do
I make sense of things.
The environments people work in are always complex. Often with even more complex systems and tools for them to work with.
I discover core patterns to bring back a level of simplicity. So people can interact with sophisticated systems with more ease and in ways that seem logical to them.

How I do it
I am a master in visualising the context of people into diagrams. This helps to find a common understanding on the desired end goal in a simplified manner.
By listening to people and observing their activities and behaviors I am able to design applications that help them perform tasks better, faster and with more joy.

What I'm like
What others have said about me throughout the years:
• a positive and flexible mindset
• passionate about his work
• asks the right questions
• delivers solutions that are well thought out
• a good listener
• nice to work with
• a quick learner
• an unusual mix of analytical and creative brain
• good sense of humor
