What people say 💬

In my personal experience, and without mincing words, Jon is the epitome of what you'd want to have in any talent/professional — the right mix of professionalism and guided empathy. If there's one thing you probably know about Jon it's that when it comes to design; he knows his onions and he's passionate about knowing more. Cryptocurrency/DeFi is a very tricky space and managing a team tasked with making it less complex is no small feat, Jon as a Degen himself is doing great work in building culture and design.
