ABOUT

Madeline Jacobson
Technical Apparel.
Soft Goods Design.
Sustainable Process.
I find creative inspiration viewing the world through a problem-solving lens. From this perspective, my unique background as an outdoor athlete, massage therapist and designer combine in a whole-problem design approach.
My process emphasizes research, hands-on making, and testing to validate design solutions. I find meaningful work in strategically navigating constraints to optimize user experience and environmental impact.
I'm passionate about supporting industry-wide sustainability initiatives and aim to make my impact felt through intentional design, circular principles and continued learning.
