About

I'm Jason — a product designer with over a decade of experience. I love to help growing tech and web3 companies create memorable, world-class products.

Currently, I'm leading the design system team at Kong, a unified API and AI platform powering modern connectivity. I work remotely from Denver, Colorado.

Before Kong, I worked at Dutchie, a point of sale and back office product focused on the cannabis industry. I helped develop the design system along with the implementation of our unified design language across multiple newly acquired products.

Prior to Dutchie, I was the first product design hire at Chainlink Labs, a web3 startup helping build the future of smart contracts in the blockchain space. Chainlink has grown into a top crypto asset with a market cap of over $9 billion USD.

I also had the opportunity to work at Twilio as a product designer on the design systems team. My journey with Twilio began at SendGrid, a marketing and transactional email provider that IPO'd and was subsequently acquired by Twilio in 2018. At SendGrid, I helped grow the small team from a few designers to a team of over 20 by the time of our acquisition. Today, Twilio stands as one of the world's leading customer engagement platforms.
