about me

I'm Mark, a freelance Design Lead & Senior Designer based in Rotterdam with over 13 years of experience. I help teams shape meaningful, well-crafted digital experiences — from design systems that scale across platforms to brand languages that work on every surface.

I've had the privilege of working with brands like KLM, Heineken, adidas, Philips, Odido, the Anne Frank House and the Port of Rotterdam. With a healthy obsession for motion design, typography and branding, I care about the details — the weight of a typeface, the timing of a transition, the consistency of a token system across platforms.
