Hi, I’m Jon (He/Him). I’m a design leader who builds economic engines through product, systems, and teams.

I’ve spent 20+ years leading design across marketplaces, consumer platforms, and emerging technologies — helping companies unlock growth by aligning user experience with business model.

Most recently, I led transformation initiatives at Dribbble, rebuilding the marketplace core and aligning monetization, intent capture, and platform incentives.

I’m now exploring my next opportunity — partnering with ambitious teams where design operates as a strategic lever for growth.

Now seeking a Director or Head of Design role leading platform, marketplace, or product transformation at scale.

I reside in Wilton, CT with my wife, two daughters, three cats (Marble-Cake, Cupcake, and Popsicle) and enjoy collecting comics, Garbage Pail Kids, and playing video games.

In the recent past, Jon has become addicted to Survivor, and entertains the unrealistic fantasy of competing on the show.
