Jason has a BS in MIS from the University of San Francisco and an MBA from the University of Oregon. Jason is; CISSP, CISM, CISA, multiple GIAC, and SCUBA certified.

While Cybersecurity may be his chosen career path, his passion, drive, and intellectual curiosity are in leadership, organizational decision making, and giving to those who have less through national and international disaster relief. He also frequently argues the case with himself that it’s these very interests that make him a better Cybersecurity practitioner…it’s not entirely clear who is winning that argument or why he bothers debating with such a frustrating individual.
