What started as a personal urge for creative and practical tools for life and a genuine interest in helping her fellow millennials navigate messy middles, has resulted in building Alta - High on Life.

Iris is a designer and small business owner dedicated to designing products that encourage living a fulfilling personal & professional life. After earning her Masters degree in Industrial Design and working as a designer & researcher for a few years, Iris founded Alta. It was during the many workshops she designed and facilitated over the years that she found that the creative tools she was using were exceptionally effective for self-exploration. Ever since Iris is on a mission to provide as many people as possible with the tangible tools to start living a life they design themselves. All from the comfort of their own homes.

Often when people feel stuck in their life, one of the few options they have is to turn to a career- or life coach for guidance, which can be daunting, expensive or just not the right fit. In her Skillshare Course Crafting Your Career Choices Iris is offering a toolkit to help you map out what you need from your job to feel energized and how you want to develop yourself. By offering people the tools to get thoughts out of their heads onto paper in a well-structured, accessible and engaging way they are able to explore what they need to feel fulfilled, and alter their life to reflect that.

Next to building Alta into a brand for intentional living, Iris is working as a creative consultant. A designer by trade and adventurer by heart, you may have seen her over at Youtube, or maybe you have met during a climbing trip. Either way, she’s glad you’re here!
