Simon Wehrli is a UX designer and researcher with 11 years of experience blending psychological science and practical design to craft usable, human-centered digital products. Trained as a psychologist (MSc in personality and developmental psychology with an HCI focus), he applies rigorous quantitative and qualitative methods—eye tracking, interviews, usability testing and experimental studies—to uncover user needs and measure UX impact. He has led projects from concept to implementation, built design systems, and consulted across sectors from enterprise (Endress+Hauser, Zühlke) to nonprofits, pairing research rigour with hands-on prototyping and WordPress implementations. Comfortable in both academic and commercial settings, he has translated behavioral theory into virtual environments and patient education, a less obvious strength that informs his empathic design approach. Based in Basel, Switzerland, Simon combines project management and customer-care experience with a knack for visualizing complex usability findings into actionable product improvements.
