About me
Hi, my name is Soninke 👋
I am a Product Designer with six years of experience from South Africa who fell in love with venture building and the Swiss Alps. I am fascinated by the intersection of design, content and storytelling, and I build digital products and experiences that put users first. My journey began with copywriting and journalism before I pursued my MA in Interaction Design at Harbour.Space University.
I work at Sparrow Ventures where I help to build and scale early-stage startups, such as Rayo, a solar solution subscription to make renewable energy more accessible for homeowners in Switzerland.
“I like to chase the sunrise with mountain peaks and coffee.”
