Design, Advisory & Mentorship

About

Hey, I’m Jason — a hybrid designer, advisor and mentor nudging people, teams and brands into greatness.

I’ve spent a couple of decades creating brands and digital products and obsessing over what makes them fly. I have a creative studio called The Workshop and invest in early-stage ventures — collaborating on brave ideas with amazing people.

I’ve lived and worked all over — New York, Miami, London, Toronto, and now the beautiful island of Mallorca.

Angel Investing

I invest my own money into ideas, people and ventures that excite me — providing tactical business, product and design feedback, mentorship and strategic introductions. Think of me as a design advisor with skin in the game.

I enjoy supporting early-stage challenges — working on undesigned solutions with founders who are brave enough to go all-in. I find that mindset inspiring. If this is you and you would like to chat about working together, please reach out!
