a bit about me

Hej, I'm Anna

My background is in Human-Computer Interaction, with a focus on user experience and design that makes digital solutions accessible and effective. I'm currently working as a Strategic UX Designer in the UX Operations team at SIGNAL IDUNA.

Off the screen I love fantasy novels and cozy games. When there's no wind for kitesurfing, I stay active with yoga, and I've been teaching it since July 2026.
