From founding an acquired startup to AI experiences at Amazon—building products, teams, and what comes next.
Companies I've led design for
I've promoted 10+ designers and managers across Amazon, AWS, and T. Rowe Price. Great work comes from great teams—that's where I spend my energy.
I connect the north star to the daily work. I drive the vision, shape the roadmap, and make sure execution follows. I've done it from startup to enterprise scale.
I've designed agentic and AI-first experiences at Amazon at enterprise scale. The work is still evolving—and so am I.
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 creates an environment that consistently drives innovation and creative excellence. Three things stand out from my time working with him: his strategic leadership and dedication to pushing the team toward bolder concepts, his empathetic approach that created the psychological safety needed for creative risk-taking, and his genuine dedication to meeting customer needs. He’s someone I’ll be continually following to learn from.

Sr. Product Manager
AWS
Jay's design instincts are unlike anyone I've worked with. His ability to translate how clients actually work into product features that matter is what helped us leapfrog competitors. I haven't met many design leaders who combine those traits.
