Jason Gifford

Design Manager, Industrial Designer, and Product Development in Providence, Rhode Island

How do we change people’s lives? By taking every opportunity, large and small, to make an experience new. We take whatever people do today and find ways to make it easier, clearer, or simply more enjoyable tomorrow. And if we can do it in a way that adds in thinking for better wellness, sustainability, and civility, then we’ve changed everybody’s future.

I am a Design thinker who pursues innovation in product ideas, not just to be disruptive, but to learn. I stay attuned to consumer wants and needs. I am thrilled by exploring technologies and I persistently work to steer those discoveries and core products toward feasible co-integration. No idea is too large or too small.

In my daily life, I am a Manager that gears teams toward faster and better processing Since time is the only resource we cannot create more of. by developing people, making workflow as efficient and executable as possible, and building a culture that thrives on and strives for success in the marketplace, I serve to help teams see their value to their organization.

Bringing people together to work as a cohesive team and creating a department whose resources and expertise are worth showcasing adds value beyond just deliverables, it’s brand building.

Ultimately I enjoy making decisions and executing strategies that guide the organization toward succinct resolutions and pride in positions we take and the work we do.
