Mark the designer

I’m Mark Schafer,
a product designer based in Wales.

Profile

For the past decade, I’ve designed products for prominent tech companies, spanning a variety of industries, platforms, and user groups.

I’ve led the design of new consumer products for seniors, tools for Twitter power users, and cutting-edge data analysis apps for enterprise users. I’ve held roles as an IC, a manager, and a team lead. The common thread in my work is building products that matter – using technology to help real people in the real world.

I’m at my best diving deep to understand and systematically deconstruct complex problems. Others describe me as incredibly thoughtful. I love typography, hobbies, and hot pink.
