Some of the most enjoyable adventures Jason has led recently.
In-depth card sorting sessions with our users swing our navigation's grouping, labels, and overall user comprehension in a powerful, new direction.
Sloppy, non-intuitive layout is revamped into an easy-to-use product via UI and visual design best practices.
Leveraging Google Maps APIs to help users find places to meet up halfway in between each other. Built with Node.js.
Draw grid-based vector graphics like logos, icons, and illustrations using an extensive library of grids. Built with Node.js and Tailwind CSS.
Unforgettable moments and friends made along the way.
Cares deeply for customers
“Jason is an absolute pleasure to work with. His passion, work ethic and drive to succeed has proven to be an asset to not only his agile teams but the UX community here at BAM. He cares deeply for customers and users, and this is evident by his eagerness to learn more about User Centered Design and advancing his skill set to make the best product he can.”
Dependable, positive and strategic
“He is dependable, positive and strategic when carrying out design decisions for his team. He was always open to helping other designers understand complicated topics and details related to his team's domain. He also has animation skills, which made him an excellent leader for the 'Micro Interactions Guild', where we collaborated to define and thoughtfully include animations into the platform we designed for.”
Risk-averse iterative approach
“Jason met me where I was and developed my app with a risk-averse iterative approach. He showed that he strives to build things correctly in a way that reflects your vision. He would be a great partner for any project.”
A miracle come true
“Many thanks to Jason and team... this project is a beast and what we are seeing is akin to a miracle come true after all these years!!!!!”
Beyond the typical UI/UX role
“Jason continues to excel and go beyond the typical UI/UX role here at BAM. From the time I've worked with him it seems like he is always taking on new challenges and trying to get better. He always tries to understand things from the dev and customer perspective, not just as designer. I've worked with designers in the past who just kind of made the design and that was it, no interaction or anything."
Fantastic UX
“A fantastic UX upgrade from what we originally did. Wow what a difference. Very nice work."
Because there's nothing more powerful than thinking for yourself.

In the information age, it has become too easy to overfixate on numbers and certainty before taking action. It seems healthy enough. Why embrace uncertainty? Certainty can take away your freedom.
I believe in strong critical thinking and ethics. Hence philosophy, Catholicism, their history, and questions about what's truly valuable are paramount to my way of seeing the world. In philosophical thought, my most cherished findings have been:
Truth and love are essential in relationships, Planning is good, but execution is better, be stubborn on vision and flexible on details, and never stop seeking humility, gentleness, and lowliness no matter your position.
