Jason grew up in Orange County, California. His interests include music, comic books, and Star Wars. An ideal weekend for Jason comprises of a getaway trip to Las Vegas, Nevada. Two of Jason’s favorite places in the world are Cape Town, South Africa and Buenos Aires, Argentina.
He lives by the phrase, “Do not be afraid of death, but to have died before you have lived.” One thing Jason absolutely cannot live without is music. His favorite genre is alternative and if he had to choose one album to take to a deserted island, it would be The World Won’t Listen by The Smiths.
Jason’s first-ever job was as a grocery bagger at Stater Bros. As for his hidden talent, he can sing with a deep, rich voice every time he drinks Bustelo Coffee. Three words to describe Jason are laidback, funny, and nice. Fun fact: Jason is Macedonian.
