John is one of the coolest designers I've worked with. He stays ahead of the curve, works well with others, has a unique style/vision, and is super-passionate about user experience.

As a developer working in tandem with him on several projects, I never had a problem communicating with him or getting an idea for what he's looking for. He also gave me several tips and neat resources to improve my design chops too, which I'm very grateful for.

John is pretty versatile... not only does he have a firm understanding of UX and looking at the bigger picture, but he's also equally dangerous with Photoshop as much as he is with HTML & CSS.

John translates user stories to well-designed experiences better than anyone I have ever worked with. He crafts experiences that elegantly solve multiple user problems in very creative yet simple ways.

Working with John is a pleasure. He pushes everyone on the team to be better and do better by the user every day. New challenges not only excite him, but he tackles them easily.

John makes your product and your team better.

John is by far one of the most detail oriented people i've ever worked with. His ability to anticipate every detail and possible interaction with the interfaces he was designing, and the meticulous detail with which he would research and validate the decisions he would make were, quite frankly, stunning.

As a developer often tasked with implementing his recommendations, working with John and seeing his thought process fundamentally changed my outlook about user experience and building interfaces, without a doubt making me a better UI developer.

I'd jump at the chance to work on a team with John again.

John is an extremely talented UX designer. As Senior UX Designer at StockTwits, he brought great energy, insight and breadth of experience and knowledge to the team. His unique ability to break down complex problems and craft simple, elegant solutions made him an invaluable asset to our team. I learned from John every day and am a far better designer from having worked with him. Anyone would benefit from working with John or having him on their team.

John is an amazing User Experience and Interface designer. He can get in the mind of the user and create or in some cases readjust the interface to work in a more natural way. He is very detail oriented and makes sure not to miss a screen or view when creating user flows. He also can code and is not afraid to get in there with HTML, CSS, SaSS etc... so he's got both skills you would want in a designer. Someone that can not only design but also think about things on the code level.

John is truly a rare find. He is a marketing director's dream - a designer who truly understands the analytics behind the machine. His work reinforces the findings of data collected from the site and he creates a user experience that keeps people interested and engaged. He has great ideas, thinks outside the box, and is always willing to help in all areas. His relaxed nature brings a calming effect to the entire team, and you know that you can count on him to meet and exceed all his deliverables. He is a great team player and a truly great person to have working on your side!

John is the type of person that you always want on your team. He's creative, hard working, and detail oriented - all the while being super easy going and fun to be around. We didn't get to work together very long but he's always made an impression as a fantastic co-worker and a strong addition to any company.

John was a self starter and had great attention to detail. I was very satisfied with the results of any project or assignment I presented him with. He was professional and attentive at all times.

John is a rare breed in the digital marketing space. Along with having a superb eye for online/offline design he has the drive and skill set necessary to understand both the financial and technical side of our business. In his time at Blindsgalore, John has drastically improved the look and feel of our site and has successfully managed numerous site enhancement projects, many of which worn born from his ideas. I can't see enough great things about John's work output and work ethic. Any team would be lucky to have him.
