Jason Putorti

Hi, I'm the Creative Director at Causes after Votizen was acquired in 2013. I created elegant.ly, was the lead designer for Mint, and Designer-in-Residence for Bessemer. This is my tumblr on brands, interaction design, and user experience, with a splash of politics.

Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That’s because they were able to connect experiences they’ve had and synthesize new things. And the reason they were able to do that was that they’ve had more experiences or they have thought more about their experiences than other people.
