My Role
My Role
In 2021, I had the chance to join a Seattle-based tech startup, initially diving into crafting a social media strategy and shaping the brand’s public persona. As it often goes in the startup world, my role quickly evolved, and I found myself embracing a wide array of tasks.
One of my key projects involved leveraging Figma to create dynamic, reusable templates that would later integrate into the app we were developing. Working closely with the UX team, I delved into designing the app, building prototypes, and scripting animations with React.
This experience taught me more than any classroom could, proving that hands-on experience is irreplaceable – no offense to Borås University, which is fantastic in its own right.
This adventure at the startup, while working remotely from various corners of the world, has been a significant chapter in my career, offering invaluable lessons and experiences that have shaped my professional path.
Our Mission
Our Mission
The aim of the video projects was to demystify the complexities of financial data, presenting it in an accessible and attractive format. By utilizing Figma to craft dynamic infographics, I aimed to transform traditional graphs into compelling visual narratives. The goal was not only to inform but to engage our audience, making each concept clear and each story memorable, ultimately driving higher engagement and traffic across our social channels.

Some Kind Words
“To whom it may concern,
I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Lisa, who joined our team in November 2021 and immediately made a significant impact with her flair for UX design. Lisa’s adeptness at creating targeted, user-centric video content through Figma shaped our branding to be more intuitive and engaging.
What truly makes Lisa an invaluable asset, however, goes beyond her technical skills. Her energy, friendliness, and sense of humor contributed significantly to our team’s dynamic, making her a pleasure to work with. Whether working on individual tasks or collaborating within a team, Lisa was comfortable and effective, bringing both high-quality work and a positive spirit.”

PS. The recommendation letter was longer but I’m trying to stay humble.

Hi!
I Have a tendency to nerd down into certain things; I’ve gone through phases of fascination with chess, cryptocurrency, muay thai, nutrition, marathon training, and have developed a keen interest all things you can eat. Yes, I’ve jumped on the sourdough and natural wine bandwagon aswell.
Music is another passion of mine, with playlists curated for every conceivable mood. Whether you’re lost in mountain melancholy, imagining heartbreak in the 1930s, or envisioning a 60s-inspired soul-searching journey, I’ve got the soundtrack for you.
I’ve also had some success in boule pétanque, It’s my little (only) claim to athletic fame.
Although I’m relatively early in my career, my quick learning ability, eagerness to work hard, and adaptability are what I believe to be my strengths.
Please give me a call! It will be fun, I promise!
