I worked very closely with Michael on designing the interactions and user experience on Paperpal features. Much of the trademark Scandinavian simplicity and intuitiveness that you experience on Paperpal is due to Michael's clean aesthetic. Edutech applications can be highly specialized and complex, and there's a bit of a learning curve; Michael's layperson POV helped us innovate and take more risks on — he never once felt compelled to copy from the competition. Throughout the time we worked together, Michael also supported product with UXR initiatives including prototype tests that helped us get a better idea about our users and their needs. Above all, I appreciated working with a designer I could riff ideas off, instead of just working in a directive fashion.

I've had the distinct pleasure of working alongside Michael for several years, and in that time, I've come to recognize him as one of the most dedicated and talented UX designers I've ever encountered. Michael's designs are not just visually appealing; they are user-centric, intuitive, and always aligned with the latest trends and best practices in the design world. His commitment to staying updated with design news, new products, apps, and services ensures that his work is always at the forefront of innovation. Beyond his technical prowess, what truly sets Michael apart is his character. His easygoing nature makes him a joy to collaborate with, fostering a positive and productive work environment. His passion for design extends beyond the workplace, as evidenced by his commendable volunteer work, where he leverages his skills to contribute to causes that make the world a better place. In a world where design can make or break user experiences, having Michael on your team guarantees that users will not only be satisfied but delighted :-)

Michael and I have been working closely together on quite few project during his time at Center for Digital Youth Care from 2013-2014. Among others Cyberhus.dk, Netstof.dk and Følgeven.dk. I have come to know Michael as a highly skilled web designer, a sincerely curious observer and a calm and very honest co-worker. Michael is creative, fast and intuitive in his workflow and at the same time he is able to maintain a solid focus on the quality and durability of his products. He has a great eye for simplicity and for boiling down complex situations to minimalist design solutions. I believe any company should consider themselves lucky to have Michael on the team.
