The Imagination Station

Turning thoughts into things

Using imagination to power up new ideas

With a design background and experience in the technology branch, I set out to come up with creative ideas for complex problems. With an empathic approach, I try to understand what it is that you truly want to achieve and hopefully turn your dream into a reality. Let’s tackle your next project together!

Imaginations I worked on

Imagination Skills I Bring to the Table

Generative AI

“Work smarter not harder” is a perfect description for working with generative AI. Generating the perfect image, video or text with AI there are lots of possibilities. I go beyond the primary knowledge needed for these models and delve deep into specific use cases with these tools.

Workshops

Sometimes it’s nice to tap into the knowledge someone else has already built up. Workshops are a perfect way for me to engage with people and let them experience and learn the beauty of design and AI through my eyes. Let me help you get up to speed and gain some practical knowledge.

UX/UI Design

A good dream starts with a good user experience. Let’s understand who your target audience is, and what they really need. Only then can we bring your idea to life with some sprinkles of magical design dust.

Design Thinking

Creativity can be difficult, but everyone can be creative. By looking at things differently, new ideas can be born. Allow yourself to dream so that new ideas can find a place to grow.

Development

Not just the development of a dream into reality but also writing some actual code. Let’s get those brain cells crunching and those fingers typing.

Scrum Master

Sometimes you just need some guidance, someone who helps you figure out how to get the most out of your team and help them to achieve cool stuff while also having fun!

Creativity

Why not think the other way around? I like to break patterns and approach challenges with a fresh mindset. I don’t like hearing “we’ve been doing this for years”, I do like hearing “wow, we have never done this before!”

Confidential Advisor

It’s important to truly listen to what people have to say and observe what they need to overcome any troubles or challenges they are facing. When needed I can just listen and provide advice for difficult situations.
