About

Hey, I'm Maik.

A Berlin native with a wanderlust spirit, my journey has been anything but ordinary. Europe became my first playground, and the United States my unexpected academic destination. At the Savannah College of Art and Design, I transformed my passion into purpose, emerging as a UX Designer committed to solving human problems.

Athletics have been my lifelong companion. From 18 years of competitive swimming to my current dedication to Jiu-Jitsu since 2021, I've learned that success is about persistent effort and collective strength. These sports taught me more than techniques—they instilled the values of teamwork and personal growth.

UX Design is where my true calling converges: helping people. Each design challenge is an opportunity to create meaningful solutions that improve lives. My approach isn't just about aesthetics, but about understanding and addressing real human needs.

When I'm not designing or training, you'll find me exploring the outdoors. Hiking trails, camping under stars, and cycling through landscapes are my ways of reconnecting with the world's natural beauty. Life, to me, is about embracing simplicity and finding joy in every moment.
