Celebrating International Women's Day & our female employees
To mark International Women’s Day, we are highlighting MODYN’s female employees who constantly inspire us in designing product experiences that move people and businesses forward.
We understand that both the mobility and design industries are male-dominated, and we are proud to have these women on our team contributing great, award-winning ideas that speak for brands, appeal to people and stand out in the market. So, let us introduce you!
What do you like most about working on designs for mobility, healthtech and transport?
‘I like that it is very dynamic, constantly changing and evolving according to the needs of society.’
Tell us what your dream project is and why.
‘I would love to work on a concept car one day. Since we might have driverless cars in the future, the function of a car will shift from just getting you from A to B to also being a workspace or lounge. I think CMF design will even play a bigger role in design.’
How do you think we can break down the biases in mobility and/or design – both predominantly male-dominated fields?
‘I think it starts with breaking the bias in general, there are still many things to overcome. And I have also learnt that it starts with companies attracting more women, deliberately hiring more women and ensuring a good gender ratio among their employees.’
Do you have any advice you would like to share with fellow women in the industry?
‘Let’s encourage each other and be role models for future generations of women.’
What do you enjoy most about working in mobility design?
‘I love creating and working on something that has a greater social impact and better meaning. Creating a better daily life or even future. This feeling gives me motivation and inspiration to get to work and create new designs.’
What was your favourite project at MODYN?
‘Well, I am new to MODYN, but I am very excited to share my knowledge and ideas!’
What is your dream project and why?
‘I love new challenges and to push my own boundaries and develop trendy but innovative concepts where aesthetics and performance are key. One possible project that inspires me most at the moment is working on the design of a concept car.’
How do you think we can break down prejudices in mobility and/or design – both predominantly male-dominated fields?
‘Accept the fact that there are many good female designers. Offer the opportunity and a fair chance to showcase that.’
Do you have any advice you would like to share with fellow women in the industry?
‘Self-confidence and action!’
