“The most beautiful things in life are not seen, read or heard - they are felt.”
For more than the past decade, Alexandrine worked on building digital experiences for their targeted audience. She believes great design is about 2 fundamental things;
Human relationships, feelings and emotions.
Complexity communicated in simplicity, clarity & consistency.
As a product design manager, Alexandrine aims to guide people towards achieving more than what they think they are capable of. She leads by focusing on what is right, not who is right.
As a product & service designer, she aims to drive change using transparency, trust, communication and collaboration within teams, always working with the most measurable outcomes possible.
