About The Cursor Magazine
The Cursor Magazine isn’t your typical design newsletter. Maybe newsletter isn’t even the right word, since this publication doesn’t focus on the new and shiny in the design world. My goal with this is not to add to the noise in your inbox but rather invite for a conversation or leave you with a new insight.
Recurring topics in The Cursor
Personal reflections on design and career progression
Deep dives into design industry topics
Inspiration on how to reconnect with your creativity
About
I’m a product designer and content creator based in Amsterdam, NL. Coming from a non-design background, I experienced first-hand the struggles of switching careers and getting started in a new industry. This publication is my outlet to make sense of the design industry, navigate career challenges and keeping it fun along the way.
A note on the usage of AI
It is important to me that my articles reflect my voice and views. Therefore, all texts you read here are written by me. I use Claude to give me editing and structuring input. I try to create the visuals myself as much as I can using Figma but occasionally, I generate visuals using generative AI.
