Hi, I'm Jordan šŸ‘‹

I’m a product-minded design leader and YC founder with 15+ years of experience shipping 0→1 products in SaaS, fintech, and marketplaces.

I've led product design and teams at Finix, Waypoint, Esri, and BoardGameGeek and was a founding designer at a VC-backed startup that was acquired. My work is fueled by curiosity and focuses on turning early ideas into scalable systems through product strategy, process, design, and hands-on execution.

I live in Chattanooga, Tennessee with my wife, two kids, and our mutt. I studied at the University of Washington and was an Entrepreneur in Residence at a branding agency in New York.

Outside of work, I play inline hockey and enjoy film photography. I'm also an Eagle Scout and a black belt in Shito-Ryu karate.
