On the personal side

Jason lives in Rancho Park with his wife and two young twin boys. He would like a pet dog, however, he and his wife can only deal with poop from one species at a time.

Jason is an avid snow skier, traveler, and hockey and tennis fan. Until recently, he spent a lot of time on the slopes during the winter and traveling the globe in other seasons. But now that he has two toddlers on his hands, free time is mostly a thing of the past. He still catches an occasional hockey game and tennis match, but mostly he spends his non-work hours either entertaining his boys or recovering from said entertaining.

Jason is also passionate about community outreach. He is the co-chair for the Scott Fierstein Memorial Fund, set up in memory of his late brother with the goal of bettering children’s lives.

Something you may not know about Jason

There is a movie called My Name Is… about a traveling industrial glue salesman named Jason Scott who loses everything and reaches out to the only other people in the world he feels connected to: other people named Jason Scott. He then vows to unite all the Jason Scotts of the world into one big club. Jason is still upset that he was not consulted on the movie.
