About

Hi, I’m John – a Sr. UX/UI Designer living in Weston, FL. I’m married with three kids, two dogs, and two cats.


I’ve held a number of design roles across different organizations, from creating ad campaigns, designing career websites, a SaaS CRM, and more recently, enhancing fan and customer experiences across various digital platforms. These experiences have sharpened my skills, pushed me to adapt, and prepared me for new challenges.

Outside of work, I like to cook, watch sports, fish, work on DIY projects around the house, and spend time with the family. And when it’s time to unwind, we all jump in the Jeep and head down to Key Largo, our favorite spot!
