I'm Simone, a product designer & strategist based in NYC.

My story.

Born in Germany, raised in China, and now in North America, my global journey has shaped a deep understanding of cultural influences. Observing these influences fueled my curiosity about psychology and reshaping society's psychological landscape. Extensive research guided my human-centered approach to comprehend needs and behaviors.

Recognizing the need for holistic change, I explored systems and design strategies. This journey revealed the power of design to elevate human ability and drive transformative change.

Now immersed in product design, my greatest passion, I'm committed to delivering sustainable and impactful solutions. Prioritizing co-creation, storytelling, and adaptability, I craft user experiences that resonate with audiences and align with business goals.

Let's forge meaningful connections through design!
