About me

Professional Identity

Hello, I’m Bente, I am a design enthusiast passionate about creating user-centered solutions that focus on functionality. I use a data-driven design approach, where every decision is informed by research, analysis, and a commitment to real-world results. This stems from my love for exploring, whether it is through traveling, connecting with people or gaining new experiences. I am always on busy with my wide scope of interests, from sports, to motorcycles, creative projects, and exploring nature. I use the unique perspectives I gain from my personal passions to create First-Person Perspective designs, often focusing on mental & physical well-being.
I have a long history as a top-athlete, which has given me a deep appreciation for pushing mental and physical boundaries, which can be seen in my designs and work ethic.

The technical aspects of design is what gives me energy, whether it's refining electronics, exploring materials, or diving into the physics of making a product work seamlessly. Throughout my design process I use making as a way of exploration. This helps me think more creatively and outside of the box, aligning perfect with my problem-solving mindset. 
My designs have improved users' ability to manage stress, express themselves, enhance mobility, and experience greater ease-of-use. Showing my dedication to creating designs that not only meet the users need, but also the unread needs, which are needs a user is not aware of.

Collaboration central to my work,  my outgoing nature and good social skills make me a good team player and communicator. These traits help me engage with users and colleagues, gaining an understanding of their needs, goals, and challenges.
I value the opportunity to share my insights and designs, often sparking conversations that deepen understanding from both sides. I would consider my use of visuals one of my communicative strong suits. In group projects, I often take a leadership role, where my critical eye and perfectionist drive ensure that all aspects of a design align cohesively.

Within User-needs, I am particularly passionate about designs enhancing  ease of use, balanced with market feasibility using technology focused designs and a data and making focused approach.
This balance drives me to deliver designs that are functional, cohesive, and market ready.
