Sandra de Ridder

I’m a UX/UI designer with over 20 years of experience. My main focus is to design websites and mobile applications that allow the user to reach their goal in an easy and intuitive way. Figma, Sketch and Adobe Suite have no secrets for me and I quickly find my way around new tools.

The collaboration with developers is easy because of my experience with both development and projectmanagement. I know how to convince stakeholders to go for the best solutions for the user. With my experience, I like to inspire junior and medior designers and help them to expand their knowledge.

In the past years I have been working as a freelance UX/UI designer at ABN AMRO bank on the new application flows for insurance and consumer credits. An Agile environment that covered all facets of UX, including data driven design, user research and a design system in development. As I am used to work with offshore teams I am used to speak, read and write in English.

I think you are never too old to learn, which is why I’m now taking a course in behavioral design. This takes only a couple of hours a week, so I am open for new job opportunities.
Whether you are a big corporate company or a small branding agency, I love to help you with all kind of projects. Want to know more? Let’s get in touch!
