About

Hi! My name is Lizzy, I am interested in everything material related in our phygital day to day lives. How are they made? What is their purpose? What are their limitations? What service do they provide us? How do we experience them? But more importantly: How can we extend the lifecycle and reduce the environmental impact of a material? Developing strategic product experiences from R&D to end-to-end is what drives me as a professional. You can put me in a design team in any kind of industry since my strength is to strategically analyse and adapt complex product development processes. However, I am at my best shaping better futures in entrepreneurial environments working with cross-disciplinary teams and stakeholders.
