About
Hey-o, I'm Casper :)
And I had no good
images of myself for this
A Jutlander by heart now living in Copenhagen,
and a Swiss* army knife* of mostly good ideas,
when trying to reduce the amount of "UGH" in everyday life.
*Not actually from Switzerland
*Should not be used as cutlery
I discovered UX design
after jumping ship from
software engineering,
because I felt too disconnected from both people and decision-making.
For me, a perfect workday would be engaging with users and analysing findings to find
root problems.
And luckily I'm way better at that than I'm at playing pool.
A thing I like a lot is,
board and video games.
For me a good board game
is one where there is both time for banter between turns,
while still offering some level of strategy.
Recommendations: Azul, Mech vs. Minions, Ticket to Ride, Block Party.
Currently playing: Slay the Spire 2, TFT, Divinity Original Sin 2.
Picture unrelated, I just wanted to show my parents dog, who is the best boy.
Some other favorites:
- Movie: V for Vendetta
- TV Show: Game Changer
- Video Game: Persona 4 Golden
- Music: Redhook or Set It Off
- Tea: White or Lemon
- Cocktail: Amaretto Sour, but made properly with egg whites
I also enjoy hitting the dance floor with some okay moves,
with my go-to song being Murder on the Dancefloor
