Overview
Hi there! I'm Jack, a Brooklyn-based digital designer with a passion for building products that make sense – meeting seamlessly at the intersection of aesthetics and functionality. Through my work, I use design as a tool to rethink the systems, experiences, and environments we live and work within.
I'm a heavy lifter, deep thinker, and empathetic designer who approaches a challenge with curiosity.
On the side
When I'm not designing, you can find me practicing hot yoga, biking around Williamsburg, or perfecting the perfect pour-over coffee.
