Vera Völkel

I am an User Interface Designer with more than 20 years of professional experience in the digital agency industry as Senior UX/UI Designer and Creative Director.

I have helped develop visual digital strategies for many large companies and am very familiar with all aspects of UX and UI design. My activities focused on the conceptual and visual development of complex portals and apps as well as IT ecosystems.

Since 5 years I am more than happy to work as a freelancer. I love creative challenges, technical processes and developing solutions that require all my experience and creativity. 

Through my digital expertise, my design background, my technical understanding and my further education as a coach, I create results of particular value. This starts with the development of the concept, includes the creative design process and is reflected in my very personal advice.
