A father to five beautiful children, Jason has been married to the same amazing woman for over thirty years. He and Judy have been – and continue to be - active in their community, serving and volunteering in various roles within a multitude of ministries and charitable organizations that support and care for children and their families. As a survivor of childhood trauma and a lifetime of trauma endured as a firefighter for over three decades, Jason has come to understand what it is to endure pain and an ever-present pressure to perform. This journey through post-traumatic stress has fueled a fire within him to advocate for mental health services and support within the first responder community.

Fueled by a burning passion for changing his life’s outcome, He has found that his past and his pain have met with his passion at a crossroads…an intersection of a life lived and a life yet to live. Jason is on mission to fulfill his purpose and leave a legacy of strengthening family relationships. Jason’s passion for strengthening family relationships has led him to engage, encourage, and empower dads to fulfill their God-given role as the leaders of their families by equipping them to be active and engaged in the lives of their families.
