"Jon is the very model of a modern UX designer — user-centric in his worldview, collaborative in his approach and agile in the day-to-day chaos of a startup. He casts a wide net in his analysis of the problems to be solved while remaining rigorous in the application of the tools of UX design to drive toward finding solutions to the user’s problems. He’s able to challenge assumptions in a way that leads to more elegant, and often simpler, solutions but keeps his eye on the horizon."

"Jon consistently delights regardless of the level of difficulty of the project, but is particularly inspiring when devising design strategy and vision under the most demanding circumstances. Some of my favorite moments of collaborating with Jon came during the most physically and mentally grueling endeavors we’ve pursued together. He is an indispensable partner for anyone looking to define and execute true human centered innovations in design, products, and services."

"Jon is a rare design leader who has the ability to challenge designers and cross-functional peers of all levels. His honesty, candor, and curiosity have made an unforgettable impact on my time at Strava and my career at large. Jon joined our design team which had gone near-fully-remote after the pandemic. He quickly diagnosed silos and withdrawn behavior amongst the design team and championed a weekly product design crit. I have never worked with a design leader who encouraged and facilitated crit week after week with such commitment."
