Heather Neises

User Experience Strategist

User Interface Designer

UX/UI Project Manager

I’m a UX/UI Designer, Researcher, and Strategist with a passion for creating intuitive, user-centered digital experiences. Originally from Colorado and currently calling Amsterdam home, I bring a blend of curiosity and strategy to every project I tackle. My goal is to craft seamless interactions and advanced design solutions for high-end users in fields like science, aerospace, and research—industries that inspire me to keep pushing the boundaries of what's possible in technology.

I’m deeply drawn to challenges involving data visualization and complex UX flows, especially where strategy and critical thinking are essential to getting a feature just right across multiple touchpoints. The part I love most about UX/UI is the opportunity to make technology feel approachable and impactful for users who rely on it in specialized fields.

Outside of my work life, I find joy in rock climbing, acroyoga, and creating art, alongside a recent hobby in video game design and sprite creation. Each of these interests influences my design thinking, sparking ideas for innovative interactions and layouts that blend functionality with creativity.
