At KMD, I designed an application for the iPhone called Navinko and studied its practical use in research to make walking and riding a bicycle more fun. Now I work for a company called Recruit Life Style and design new user interfaces for software used by private users and companies. My experiences at KMD were invaluable and gave me the foundation for my current work.
