Summary
John K is a product designer in New York with 11 years of experience crafting human-centered experiences that prioritize ethics, inclusion, and practical delight. He’s led design across startups and enterprise settings—from XR and healthcare projects at Avanade to creative blockchain and GenAI initiatives as the first design hire at Tally Labs, and now heads neighborhood-focused design at Bilt. Comfortable shipping end-to-end product work, John has repeatedly helped early-stage teams build growth-facing tooling (Eventplore, UserBit, Untapped) and enterprise platforms (Levro, Goldcast). He measures success not just by metrics but by small moments of improved daily life, and brings a playful attention to real-world friction (like rescuing work from an overly affectionate dog). A University of Washington Bothell alum, he pairs research-driven practice with cross-functional leadership and a track record of designing for teams, communities, and accessibility.
