George Perantatos

Senior Director of Product at Redfin

“Jason brings a thoughtful approach to design. In Rentals and AI, we tackled some pretty ambiguous questions and problems. Jason brought good ideas, a different perspective, and coached his team to think through the questions and challenges in a constructive way.”

Mark Locke

CEO at Genius Sports

“Jason is one of the most impressive combinations of designer and manager I have come across. He has real vision combined with an excellent ability to motivate and manage his team whilst delivering true business value to the organization. I would not hesitate in recommending him at senior level to any organization.”

Jeff Mahacek

VP, Design at Redfin

“The best piece of advice I’ve received as a senior leader is to hire someone better than you as your Director. That’s who Jason was to me. He is a driven and passionate design leader who is equally comfortable discussing the scalability of development solutions and how the work of famous psychologists drives persuasive design.”

Mane Rodrigues

Qualitative UX Researcher

“Jason was not only a passionate leader but also an incredible mentor. What I appreciated most about Jason’s unique leadership style was his humanness. It was clear from the very first one-on-one I had with him, that he not only deeply understood the product space he was entering, but also the challenges I was facing as a researcher.”
