Hello!
My name is Jon and I am a senior product designer with 10+ years of experience. I am currently at YouTube designing for the creator organization.
I am all about about creating interactions not just for the users of products, but also about the interactions of the team members creating them.
You can find me scouring flea markets, garage sales and thrift stores, as I am a lover of collecting things ranging from furniture, records, clothes and the list goes on! I would love to chat, so reach out!
