Hello! I'm Atie.

I'm a UX designer with a background in industrial design, currently based in Germany. I hold a Master's in Human-Computer Interaction, where I focused my thesis on UI dark patterns and their impact on user behavior.

My work is driven by a strong curiosity for how people interact with systems and how design decisions shape those interactions. I'm particularly interested in creating experiences that are not only functional, but also ethical, accessible, and thoughtfully crafted.

Lately I've been pushing into more technical workflows — working with AI coding agents like Codex and Claude to prototype and ship real things faster, while keeping design judgment firmly in the loop.

Outside of design I enjoy activities that balance focus and creativity — cooking, reading, painting, photography, and staying active. I'm always open to connecting, whether to exchange ideas or discuss opportunities.
