Krase Social Research & User Experience

About Me

As a social designer, I’ve always been drawn to understanding people—how they think, what they need, and how design can make a difference in their lives. My journey began in IT, where I worked to embed user insights into development, refining products through prototyping and testing. Everything changed when I moved to Amsterdam. That’s where I discovered Design Thinking—not just as a method, but as a way to drive real social change. Since then, I’ve co-created and facilitated programs that help marginalized communities gain the tools and confidence to participate fully in society. I work with children, youth, and newcomers, helping them tap into their creative potential and find their voice. Seeing them grow and shape their own futures fuels my passion every day.
