Hi there!

My name is Nicole Baster. I am a Vienna born and raised designer with Czech and Polish roots. 
Most of all I enjoy challenges that revolve around the topics of user experience and interface design, but won’t say no to any other creative tasks coming my way. 
I am currently in the process of completing my master’s degree in digital design. During my educational career I have repeatedly taken the opportunity to study abroad, since I value the exposure not only to different cultures but also to other methods and workflows.
