What colleagues, managers, and clients have said about working with me.
“Jared was the lead designer on a project that I oversaw—it was a great experience working with him. He is one of those rare designers who is talented at both visual design and the more technical aspects of design that require knowledge of coding. He was not afraid to dabble in code-heavy environments, was an excellent champion for design systems, and always delivered quality work. He is kind, articulate, funny, and genuine.”
Tom Greever
VP | Author, Articulating Design Decisions
“Jared brought exceptional strategic thinking and technical expertise to this complex project. They architected an end-to-end experience that balanced user needs with business requirements and technical constraints, ensuring our system was both intuitive and scalable. What set Jared apart was their collaborative approach. They worked seamlessly across all teams—Business Analysts, Product Design, UX, Quality Assurance and Development—making complex UX concepts accessible to all stakeholders and maintaining alignment throughout the project.”
John Whitman
Director of Product
“Jared is an exceptional visual designer and has robust experience in digital product design, design systems, branding, and even data visualization. He amplifies this experience with strong familiarity in CSS and HTML as well as React, making his ability to collaborate with engineering a breeze. His eye for well balanced design aesthetic takes his execution to the next level and sets him apart as a best in class UI designer. I would highly recommend Jared for a Digital Product Design leadership position due to his deep experience across many industries in B2B, B2C, Enterprise, Startup, etc.”
Corey Campbell
Director of Product Strategy & Design
“Jared is an amazingly dedicated and sharp colleague! He demonstrated the ability to break down complex feature requests into clean and intuitive designs that sparked delight and excitement from stakeholders, and was able to communicate design ideas in a highly effective way. Besides his top-notch design skills and genuine desire to do whatever it took to make the client happy, he also brought a sense of enthusiasm and camaraderie to the team. He happily mentored me on my design work and general career. He is truly an excellent designer and an excellent human being!”
Hiba Murali
Senior Product Designer
“Jared possesses a remarkable ability to generate innovative ideas promptly and readily collaborate with both development and product teams to ensure our products align with customer usability goals and business objectives. His collaborative nature made working with him a seamless experience, and I have no reservations about working with Jared again on future projects.”
Kathleen Radecki
Program Manager
“Jared makes work fun and he gets it done. He was a key reason a 0-to-1 startup went from concept to launch and revenue in 5 months—and it exited two years later. He has great ideas, he's fun to work with, I can't recommend him more highly.”
Charles Gugino
Technical Program Manager
“Jared is an incredibly attentive, thorough, and passionate Product Designer. His commitment to his craft is inspiring and is evident through the work that he produces. Not only is Jared extremely talented, but he is also a lot of fun to work with and brings amazing energy. I know he is going to do really, really big things!”
