About me

Hello, my name is Selen Dönmez and I am 27 years old living in Barendrecht. After the graphic design study at the Graphic Lyceum Rotterdam, I started the Communication and Multimedia Design study at Hogeschool Rotterdam. After 4 beautiful years I have completed my last education and obtained my diploma. I am currently working as a UX Designer at Sogeti.

 

Within Sogeti I have been able to work on various assignments, currently I am on assignment at Mars. At Mars, I am involved in designing a web and mobile application that will be used by factory employees. Additionally, I have the opportunity to broaden my knowledge of design systems within Mars. Within Sogeti I also have the opportunity to develop myself, I have obtained a number of certificates:

- Business course (Ohio University)

- UX Management: Strategy and Tactics (Interaction Design Foundation)

-The brain and Technology (Interaction Design Foundation)

 

I would describe myself as a daydreamer and an imaginative person. When I'm lying in bed and on the road with music, the best ideas come to my mind. When fantasizing about different ideas I end up in a completely different world. When I have an idea I immediately get very excited to realize it. I am also a social and communicative person, which makes working together and speaking with others go well for me.

 

In my spare time I am also creative and love to draw and paint. I also like to travel and I really like to visit different countries and nature reserves.
