Merle Höbel is working at eye square since September 2024 and supports the User Experience team as a trainee. She studied work and organizational psychology in her bachelor’s degree and then focused on the interaction between humans and machines in her master’s degree at the Technical University of Dresden.
In her bachelor’s thesis, she already gained experience in researching implicit attitudes when analyzing the effects of safety trainings. During her master’s degree, she then continued to focus on qualitative research during which she conducted a university-wide study.
In a foundation course on Design Thinking at the Hasso Plattner Institute in Potsdam, she was then able to gain experience in qualitative UX research.
