šŸ‘‹ Iā€™m John. You can call me J-Ro.

I'm a brand and product marketing expert with over 25 years of experience leading and implementing integrated marketing strategies for a wide range of established brands and emerging technologies.

I am interested in and actively track companies and innovations in Climate and sustainability / Applied AI / Future of work / Consumer goods / Childcare / Aging & longevity / Voice and visual interfaces / Social impact / Applied IoT / Civic equality and inclusion / Generative content & publishing / VR & AR and more.

My consultancy, Stage Two in San Francisco, has worked with product designers, startup founders, corporate innovation labs, and venture firms. We focus on zero to one program development and go-to-market for new products and services.

Recently, I co-founded Visva, an innovative social collaboration platform aiming to make it easier for like-minded tribes and brands to collaborate towards positive change.

I live in San Francisco, CA. I'm from Austin, TX.

I dig telling and reading great stories, cooking and eating good food, bikes and gears, swimming and surfing in the ocean, harnessed electricity, and well-designed products and meaningful experiences.

I'm passionate about the intersection of story, design, human power, and technology and how they can work together to develop delightful interactions for the greater good.
