Hey, I'm Jason—art director & associate creative director. Content creator. Founder & curator of The Toolbox. And chronic dabbler—way too many hobbies.

I'm passionate about leading healthy creative practices that are both ambitious and sustainable.

Currently leading campaigns, building AI tools, and breaking things at Amazon's Brand Innovation Lab—based in NYC.

Background

I grew up in a small Canadian town of 2300 people and just one yellow pedestrian light. I have since traveled around the world, lived in multiple countries, learned two languages (Thai & Lao), stumbled into art direction, and worked with the largest brands on the planet.
