Head of Design at Studio
I'm a self-taught design generalist, founding designer and Head of Design at Monthly (monthly.com), where we provide 30 day, cohort based classes taught by instructors like Kygo, Mark Rober, and more top tier creators.
But perhaps more importantly, I'm an advocate for the creatives who think they can't. Learning anything requires a commitment to leveling up, and it's inevitably a vulnerable, often messy process. As a result of my creative and career endeavors, I've probably learned at least a few things, and I'd love to be able to give back to the creatives that think they can't. My past life includes cofounding a green-tech startup, KP Design Fellow, product agencies, in-house companies and more.
Outside of Monthly, I love taking advantage of Boulder's breathtaking landscape by running, biking and climbing across the varied terrain here. I also enjoy listening to podcasts, creating art, playing music (piano, uke) DIY and more.
“Jeff is a great mentor because he takes the time to really understand the challenges that you have as a designer and then gives logical, coherent and wise advice based off his own experiences in the design industry. Thank you for getting me started with a plan that I will attempt to execute in my current workplace as the only designer that is trying to find their footing.”
“Jeff is helpful and friendly! I discussed the structure of my portfolio presentation with him, and he kindly shared the key factors the experienced designers hope to see. Very lucky to have a chance to learn from him!”
“Jeff was super nice and thoughtful in answering my questions! He took the time to understand where I'm coming from before sharing his thoughts and experiences with me, and I really appreciate it! I really enjoyed my conversation with Jeff and would definitely recommend chatting with him!”
