Bio.
Moin, I'm Lasse from Hamburg, Germany.
My journey into the creative world started in my early youth, sparked by my love for playing with LEGO and drawing. This early interest planted the idea of becoming a designer.
I've always been good at solving problems and paying close attention to what's around me. My curiosity leads me to understand how things work and to turn my ideas into real products. I'm all about making sure the user enjoys using them, paying careful attention to how they look and sweating the small details.
I think it's important to listen, making sure everyone's skills are used well to connect a strong team and transform fragile ideas into cohesive, holistic user experiences.
