Hi! I'm
Hugo Verhoef :)

I’m currently working as a UX/UI designer for PressPage, a SaaS company. My daily tasks are improving and updating the existing SaaS products as well as designing and validating new products. These SaaS products help big companies like KLM, Booking, Logitech, and Porsche to manage their corporate communication and workflows. Being part of an agile development team, I use an iterative human-centered design approach (user research, prototyping, and user testing) to provide the team design solutions regularly.

In my free time, I play tennis, watch movies and series, and I like to design 3d models with various tools like Maya or Zbrush.
