Threading together the disparate digital, analog and human elements needed to keep a smooth dance with the fast pace of technological changes.
Experience
Prior to starting the IT part of his operations management career, Jason was also a journeyman cabinetmaker and installer. His training as a tradesman in construction, alternative heating systems, electronics repair and the transformational education models taught by the Love and Logic® institute and Landmark Education LLC inform his work managing the buildings and technology that support MG’s mission.

In Community
Since rediscovering cycling in 2004, Jason has pedaled over 30,000 miles, commuting and raising funds for the American Lung Association and The Street Trust. In 2015 he realigned his progressive mindset and grassroots values and began serving on the Clackamas Democrats executive, central and communications committees. He is a founding member of the technology committee and co-leads voter outreach in his house district.
When he’s not tending to his family, the compost, yard, garden, house or some other adventure, you’ll find Jason spinning an indie LP and playing a tabletop game with his favorite people.
