I'm a hands-on design leader combining strategic vision with craft to drive impact across consumer, enterprise, and AI platforms.
Companies I've led design for
Designing experiences where artificial intelligence augments human judgment—balancing automation with agency, and insight with trust.
Translating ambiguity into vision—connecting north stars, metrics, and mechanisms to drive meaningful outcomes.
Coaching teams to think bigger, work smarter, and design with purpose. Championing a culture where design is a team sport.
Jay is one of the most impactful professionals I've collaborated with. He has a rare ability to drive large-scale projects from concept to execution while keeping stakeholders aligned the whole way. Strategic thinker and hands-on executor — I haven't seen many who do both well.

Working with Jay is like working with innovation in motion. His vision is breathtaking, his balance between client and business needs is remarkable, and the culture he builds makes an already amazing job, perfect.

Jay is a true thought leader — curious, always learning, and bringing fresh perspectives to the team. He has an ability to see around corners, anticipating challenges before they become problems and designing for where things are going, not just where they are. What I appreciate most is how he shows up as a partner: collaborative without ego, open to feedback, and genuinely invested in the success of the product and the people around him.
