Hello, I’m Jason. 👋I love leading in-house design teams to solve real problems for real people.
Over the past 7+ years I’ve built and scaled teams of product designers who ship work that move business metrics. With over 20 years of hands-on craft experience in design and front-end development, I operate as a true partner to product and engineering, empowering all disciplines to do their best work.
A brief work history.
As AI reshapes the way that products are built and how design teams operate, I’m focused on two things: helping my teams design agentic AI features that earn user trust, and adopting AI into our workflows to raise our output quality along with velocity. The teams I lead have shipped AI features like alt text generation and AI-assisted content customization as we continuously adapt our product design practice to move at the speed of thought with systems-based design automation. Learn more about some of the projects I’m most proud of from each of the product orgs I’ve been fortunate enough to be a part of:
Elsewhere on the web, and in print too.
I’ve always enjoyed writing about what I’m learning and experimenting with, whether it’s here on my site, for a company blog/newsletter, or on social. I’m also the original author of Sitepoint’s bestselling design book, The Principles of Beautiful Web Design.
Outside of work, I co-organize a monthly UX meetup in Orlando, launched teamdesign.team, frequently speak about design, and enjoy helping others connect with the field.
