Hello, and welcome to my digital portfolio.
I’m Katya Jones, a product designer based in Southern California with experience spanning diverse industries and user needs.

My work has included:

• Designing 8 medical devices

• 2 at-home products

• 40+ Lifestyle and Camping/Hiking Bags

My career has allowed me to lead projects from concept to production, often balancing roles as both designer, team lead, and project manager. I’ve collaborated directly with clients to transform their ideas into functional, user-friendly products rooted in thorough consumer and user research. My process includes being hands-on in designing, engineering, and sewing quick samples and prototypes. While doing so I make sure to maintain close communication with production teams.

The outdoor industry holds a special place for me, as it blends my professional expertise with my passions. Outside of work, you’ll often find me hiking, cycling, or learning to surf.

I invite you to explore my portfolio, and if you have any questions or collaboration ideas, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
