SHORT BIO

Hi, my name is Nicole. By profession, I am a full-stack multi-disciplinary designer with super UI/Visual & UX design powers. I believe in creating intelligent creative solutions that tap into the truths of a targeted user, making meaningful connections between product, brand, and their world. Ultimately this leads to creative solutions that are genuinely desirable, feasible, and viable for the business and the users. This is done by thorough research and data-driven design decisions as well as an understanding of the inner mind workings of the end-user and the other stakeholders involved.

Currently, I am a senior Product and UX designer for SAP´s SAP -community and the SAP Learning destinations. I lead and oversee the user experience of 2 of SAP´s golden product touchpoints leading design from conception to launch with product managers and engineers.

I have more than 14 years of design experience with a special focus in multi-faceted organizations that requires innovative problem-solving, a great eye for detail, and the ability to deliver in a fast-paced environment. Most recently I was the Lead Designer at Adhera Health. As part of the brain-trust I helped strategize, oversaw design, and implemented innovative design methodologies that scaled. Prior to that, I was the Creative Director at Abi Global Health where my brainpower was focused on designing, implementing, and managing crucial aspects of the product and the brand. Also, I worked as a designer at Home Depot where I helped craft and implement the brand. Eventually, I found my way to Kellen Company, where I worked with many clients such as Kellogs, Smithsonian, Harvard University, George Washington University, Teladoc, and Healthgrades.

I hold a master’s degree in User Experience from the University of Barcelona and a BFA from Savannah College of Art and Design in the United States. I have also been awarded multiple scholarships such as “Woman in Tech” and “SCAD Honours Student”. Finally, I teach and mentor the next generation of talented female designers at AllWoman, a higher education institution.

Aside from all this, I live to live (this involves me doing things I enjoy like traveling, gardening, photography, cooking, fine art, and all things crafty). I dig all kinds of music, crazy about all things well designed and deeply care about our planet, all creatures on it and creating a more sustainable future.

I’m currently based in Barcelona, but originally from South Africa and have spent almost a decade of my life in the United States.

Thanks for stopping by!
