Hi, I'm Jakob Schedler. I design UX that blends research, interaction design, and frontend development to create accessible and scalable digital products. My experience spans freelance and permanent roles across healthcare, fintech, and consumer brands, with a strong focus on Design Systems and end-to-end product teams. I enjoy collaborating with cross-functional teams, turning complex workshop outputs into clear interfaces, and continuously improving the developer handoff. When I'm not designing, I enjoy learning new frontend techniques and exploring new design tools.
