Visual thinking, product design, drawing, design for interaction.
As a designer, I find it very important that the quality of all our products, be it physical or virtual, is very high. With which I mean a high `ease-of-use' and accessibility for as large a group as users as possible.

Manager Internal Control
I'm working as Manager Internal Control for Aegon, with special interest in Privacy and Behavior. In those topics I notice a lot of text and little visuals in for example Privacy statements or Code of Conducts. For Enterprise Riskmanagement Aegon had a visual frequently used by Riskmanagement and business in reports. With my team we are working on a new privacy statement and I was tipped by Aegon Global Privacy Officer on this site and subject.
For my education (Master Riskmanagement) I am investigating the possibility and benefits of a more visual statement.

As an attorney-at-law at Pellicaan Advocaten I am always aiming to deliver the best services to my clients. In my opinion it is essential that my advice and the contracts and statements I draft are as accessible and clear as possible. As the law can be very complex and full of terms that have a certain judicial overtone this can be challenging.
Internet of Things, Product Design, Creative facilitation

Employment law/Arbeidsrecht
I believe legal design thinking can be a way to create contracts for persons that aren't legally trained and, as a consequence, make such contracts more clear.

Data Protection; IT Law; IPO, Mergers & Acquisitions
Simplicity was really important to me.
My background is in architecture. I'm architect. Throughout over 20 years I have been serving other designers in the industry. First on visual communication, making their visions into images and animations using always the latest computing power and most advanced rendering solutions. Later on, these days, core focus is on BIM (building information modelling) pipelines including the visual collaboration.
From where we get to the point: visual contracts. We know that lot of troubles still emerge at real construction sites specially among sub-contractors when they clash on contract borders. For that to happen less we built an application to capture the spoken promise into a trusted video contract..

I work as a contract manager in the aerospace industry. I often work with engineers to make sure that a program's needs are met through the resulting contract.

Lawyer (Germany) & Legal Designer
I am an active Legal Designer for over 15 years and I am consulting and conduct Legal Design projects for law firms, inhouse legal departments and legal tech companies.
I want to join the community for more collaboration, coaching, mentoring and to create synergies in concrete projects.
Traditional Law Practice: Criminal, Civil and Administrative Litigation (70%). Contracts Drafting and Negotiation (30%). New Law: Legal Products Development (Standardization of legal processes/services offered as products).
Most of the legal difficulties faced by people and organizations in Mexico derive from the lack to access of legal information and advice. And lawyer`s bad reputation and expensive fees tends to keep them away. That´s my call after going through 3 different law firms practicing mostly criminal and civil litigation for around 10 years (2008-17). Having a LLM experience (UC Berkeley- class 17) gave me (i) the opportunity to contrast Mexico´s reality and my ideas with a community of top ranked professionals from all around the world, and (ii) the tools to idealize and create My Dear Lawyers (my proposal to solve people-lawyers distancing).
My Dear Lawyers was launched last November 20th by Co-Founders Luis Rivera, Daniel Guillén Zolezzi and myself. We develop and produce standardized and affordable legal products to cover people´s primary legal needs.
