I build and lead multidisciplinary teams across design, research, and content strategy to drive impact across consumer, enterprise, and AI products.
Companies I've led design for
Coaching teams to think bigger, work smarter, and design with purpose. Championing a culture where design is a team sport.
Translating ambiguity into vision—connecting north stars, metrics, and mechanisms to drive meaningful outcomes.
Designing experiences where artificial intelligence augments human judgment—balancing automation with agency, and insight with trust.
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.

In my 20 years in UX, Jay is hands down the most supportive and effective leader I've worked with. He builds teams where people feel trusted and empowered to do their best work — and he knows exactly when to step in and when to get out of the way. Any organization would be fortunate to have him.

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.
