As a design researcher at VRT Innovation, I outline the needs and wishes of users towards new technologies and products. I strongly believe in Design Thinking as a methodology and apply this iterative process during several stages of an innovation project, ranking from generating ideas, developing concepts, prototyping to implementation. In order to understand and engage the user in this process as much as possible, this is often paired with co creation sessions and workshops. The main focus of my current work is disinformation and AI.
