nice things some people have said

“With Jason, I can say 20 words that would otherwise take 2,000 to convey an idea. He runs with it - comes back with smart creative. Jason's is seriously gifted in his ability to siphon thru the junk and drive a straight line to the core of an idea, message, design, etc. It's so refreshing to have intelligent design and voice that inspires vs. talks down.”

Jody Hall, CEO and Founder of Wunderground, Founder of Cupcake Royale

“Jason is one of the best Creative Directors you can have in a brainstorm. Never shutting down a single idea, but rather, twisting and turning each idea into something great that could be, if it should be. He truly inspired our team, bringing his own in-depth perspective and creative point of view to the table every day, along with his joyous, warm, positive energy. If you get the chance to create with this man, enjoy it and soak it in.”

Darrah Cristel, Senior Copywriter

“Jason is the person who is always willing to try a fresh approach or ask a pertinent question that hasn't been asked. He'll also create a stop animation film to illustrate a point to the team. He is highly creative and super practical -- all in one bundle of great humor and insight..”

Sally Johnson, Oxbow Farm and Conservatory, REI Co-op


“There’s no other way to say it: Jason is a creative juggernaut who’s had a profound impact on the REI Co-op. His vision, voice and passion for the outdoors can be seen and felt virtually everywhere a customer encounters the REI brand. I’m frequently in awe of Jason’s knowledge of design, history, language, culture and current events, and how he uses this knowledge to guide his team in pursuit of great creative. He’s funny, persuasive and down to earth, with well-honed presentation skills and the ability to articulate the strengths and weaknesses of a particular idea or execution with uncanny speed and clarity.”
