PicknRoll, Founding Designer, 2023–Present

PicknRoll is an iOS daily fantasy sports game that takes the shape of a 3x3 board matrix. The game design takes inspiration from casino slots, reinventing the daily fantasy sports category for the modern sports fan.

I joined PicknRoll as the founding designer, brought on board by the two co-founders to help bring their vision to life. My role involves shaping the app’s visual identity, designing intuitive gameplay experiences, creating a scalable system, and crafting seamless user flows.
“Nik’s knack for user intuition, paired with his ability to deeply understand product challenges, allows him to consistently deliver simple yet thorough solutions. He goes beyond the expected deliverables, relentlessly pursuing the optimal solution to every problem. With Nik on our team, the standard for our product was elevated to an entirely new level.”

Niklas Schumacher, Product Designer Based In Amsterdam, NL

The early stages of product development are where I thrive most, turning uncertainty into well-designed, scalable solutions.

I work with companies across industries—from banking to streaming—at every stage of the product lifecycle, whether it’s building products from the ground up, maintaining and improving existing systems, or refining solutions through deep user research.
