Hi! I'm Zak

a product designer

from Anchorage

I'm an end-to-end product designer who builds elegant and lightweight solutions for modern web applications.

I've worked on everything from self-hosted micro-apps (like this one!) to enterprise software. With over 10 years of experience in product design and dozens of shipped products, I'm a proven and capable contributor-collaborator. Whether it's iterating a prototype or implementing a frontend, I help bring ideas to life.

Roles

I am most excited working in one or more of these three roles:

Ideation

From the requirements doc and wireframes to full-fledged prototypes and developer handoff

Execution

Shipping code at any stage of a product's development and building it as it was designed

Design Operations

Reducing friction in communication between teams, and building tools for both
