Jason Park runs Tusk, a project management tool built specifically for remote design teams. By day, he codes in a WeWork near Austin's Seaholm District, and by night, he tweaks onboarding flows while rewatching Silicon Valley episodes. His Chrome tabs are permanently filled with Zapier configurations and Airtable base templates. Though introverted by nature, he forces himself to attend one networking event per month—usually leaving after two drinks with three new feature ideas scribbled in his Notes app. Jason vehemently refuses to use Notion for personal tasks ('too meta'), instead relying on a color-coded Google Sheets system that only he understands.
