Hello,
I'm Dani

I’m born and raised in the south of Germany, where I work as a footwear designer at adidas in the running department. What fascinates me about running shoes is the blend of performance, technical innovation, and designs inspired by human anatomy.
I earned my degree in Industrial Design from the University of Pforzheim and completed my master’s in Material Design at the University of Reutlingen. My strong material background combines a understanding of both design and technical aspects.
In my free time, I enjoy reading, exploring new cuisines, and indulging in creative pursuits like ceramics and life sketching. Current favorite books: “Born a crime ” by Trevor Noah and “Pachinko” by Lee Min Jin. My current cravings: self-made sourdough bread and summer rolls.
