Lin Vliegenthart
service / UX designer

My professional experiences included roles as Service/ UX designer at different organisations, such as Philips (Venture), OSAGE (design agency), Intense (TU/e Spinoff) and Red Cross (humanitarian organisation). Having the opportunity to employ my design expertise to a variety of innovative organisations and background in Industrial Design have shaped me into a versatile designer.

My work centers around articulating design challenges, identifying business opportunities and developing new and unexpected (digital) products and services that prioritise the user needs. What truly fuels my passion is the opportunity to design with and for marginalized groups. Whether it is designing interventions for people living with dementia or people with a lower socio-economic status (SES), my goal is to empower all members of society through simple and intuitive designs. In addition, as a citizen I am engaged in community service initiatives, like Repair Café.
