About

Paul Zumbrink

Strategy to execution, with a lean process built for impact.

I work independently, through my company Eulers, as a hands-on design lead inside product teams. I take the work end to end, from research and strategy through to the shipped interface. It has won Cannes Lions and been covered by Wired, Fast Company, TechCrunch and The Verge.
