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.
Jay is one of the most visionary leaders I've met. Staying on the cutting edge isn't just something he does — it's who he is. He mentors with kindness, shares expertise generously, and creates an environment where people feel supported and inspired to grow.

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.

Jay was my manager at AWS, and his mentorship was transformative for my career in designing for AI and intelligent systems. What made him exceptional was how he embodied his ‘design is a team sport’ philosophy — creating an environment where I felt empowered to ask questions, experiment, and push boundaries. He challenged me to think bigger and connect my work to broader product strategy and organizational impact.
