You probably haven’t had the chance to meet Anne Marie yet, since she works mostly behind the scenes. However, you may have already come across her in the blog about our office dog Pip! Anne Marie has been working at Grexx for almost four years as a UX & Front-end Consultant and has had significant influence on the look and feel of Grexx platform.
Creative nerd at heart.
Anne Marie studied Communication and Multimedia Design at the Hogeschool van Amsterdam. In her previous roles, she worked as a creative director for startup and as a freelancer building websites on the complex side: an expert in not only strong designs but in beautiful and seamless with other systems.
Anne Marie: "As a freelancer, I liked the idea of creating really beautiful websites that are easy to maintain and systems that take as much work out of your hands as possible. I have always been very interested in what people want to achieve; as a freelancer and as a creative, you quickly learn that the initial customer demand is rarely what someone needs. Asking questions, empathizing, making your client think, that's what I liked about my job.
After a few years, I was eager to learn new things and grow further in the technical field, to master more programming and languages and get a little more involved in UX (User Experience). That's how I ended up at Grexx, because what I could and wanted to learn was exactly what they were looking for."
"No puzzle is unsolvable."
"Actually, what I love most is solving puzzles, both in UX and front-end that comes back a lot, and both in code and design. I'm pretty fanatical. If I see something that's not right, I must fix it. Sometimes that can take a while, but most of the time I figure it out. I've really learned a lot in terms of programming over the past few years. In my college days, I thought it didn't suit me, but that wasn't really based on anything. A few years ago, I got more interested in it and I now build a lot in Grexx Studio, which itself is built with the Grexx Platform.
Over the past four years, we have made tremendous design changes. The complete look and feel of the low-code studio and the platform have been addressed. From house style, logo, and colors and so on, to the routes we let users take on the platform. Of course, we want users to be able to easily put something together themselves, without code, so that means we must empathize with all possible user cases behind the scenes. Lately I've been working a lot on the new WYSIWYG editor, which stands for What you see is what you get. That's going to help people easily tweak the design of their application themselves."
