About Jasha Aitchison

UX Design Lead, Design Systems at JPMorgan Chase

I am a Design Leader and technologist with a background in UX, design systems and visual design. I have a passion for establishing processes, working in systems, and listening and learning from real people using the products I contribute to.

I recently wrapped up my time at JPMorgan Chase, where I worked on the Manhattan Design System and served as Acting Head of Design Systems during a parental leave. I’m currently consulting through my own practice while exploring what’s next.

I'm always learning from others and love to share and support people where I can, through mentorship or listening and feedback sessions. I love drawing, painting, hanging out with my doggie Nelson, and spending time with my family.
