UX/UI DESIGNER & VISUAL STRATEGIST
Benjamin
Franke
Hi, I'm Benjamin! A Media Design student and Visual Strategist with a focus on UX/UI design and photo and video work.
SCROLL
I'm a Visual Strategist with a passion for crafting intuitive digital experiences and compelling visual narratives. Whether I'm designing interfaces or behind a camera, I bring the same eye for detail and intention to everything I create.
I'm studying Media design at Ostfalia University of Applied Sciences, with a foundation year in Creative Media & Game Technologies at Hanzehogeschool Groningen, where I first discovered my passion for UX/UI. Backed by nearly two years of hands-on experience as a UX/UI working student at Zeiss GOM Metrology, I've worked on real products from concept to stakeholder presentation, giving me a practical understanding of what it takes to design experiences that are both intuitive and visually refined.
