Hello there
I’m Jake Zastrow

I'm a UX & product designer with six years of experience, currently working as an Associate Director of UX at a full stack design agency group. I love shaping digital products across financial services, healthcare, consumer brands, and nonprofits. I lean on research, testing, and behavioral data to make decisions I can defend, and I care most about the small choices that add up to a product feeling clear and useful in someone's hands. I believe you can't see perfection but you can feel it, and that belief is what drives me to keep sharpening the work sprint after sprint.

I live in the mountains of Montana, which is where I do most of my thinking. When I'm not designing, I'm skiing, climbing, or on a bike somewhere in the backcountry, and I've come to believe the best design work draws from the same instincts as those sports: reading the terrain, committing to a line, and staying honest about when to adjust.
