Jon is currently a Lead Digital Product Designer at Scout Motors, where he brings together his background in design, storytelling, motion, and content to shape thoughtful, human-centered digital experiences. His approach blends strategic clarity with creative depth, helping build products that are not only functional but emotionally resonant.
Over the years, Jon has led multi-disciplinary teams across product, film, photography, and brand. His work spans visual design, animation, 3D, video production, sound design, and AI-driven content creation. Across each medium, the goal remains the same: to craft cohesive, high-impact narratives that connect.
Prior to Scout, Jon was at Code and Theory / YML, directing creative for brands including Under Armour, YETI, Volvo, Amazon, State Farm, and Invisalign. There, he helped shape digital-first campaigns and experiences that merged strong design systems with compelling storytelling. He led pitches, mentored creative teams, and oversaw production across digital products, content ecosystems, and experiential work.
Before that, Jon ran his own studio and partnered with boutique agencies on work for Google, Mindbody, Twitch, Cisco, Realtor.com, and A Book Apart. Whether the challenge was brand, product, or content, he approached it with a design-first mindset and hands-on execution.
Outside of client work, Jon explores creativity through Monsters of Design, a podcast he co-hosts about the realities and inspirations behind the design world. He also writes and records music, and directs films as The Curious Hunter, documenting outdoor adventures with a cinematic, personal lens.
