Jason started writing back when he was only eight years old, making up short, one page
stories that involved myself and a girl that held my affections at the time. Throughout
the rest of grade school he continued on with those, and it wasn't until the onset of high
school did he find new inspiration for longer works of fiction, also taking the time to
refine his writing style. It was at this time he started to take his writing seriously.
Throughout the 1990's, Jason's love of science fiction shows and movies helped him create
his own tales in new stories, whether it be fan fiction, or original works. It was at this
time that he laid the groundwork for some of the very series that he writes about to this
day. Near the end of high school Jason started his first and only novel up to this point,
which was cut short and put aside so that he could focus on his strengths in creative writing,
which are comprised of short stories and novellas. His unfinished novel wouldn't come back to
light until just over twenty years later as a long novella worked into his Urban Sentinel
series, which became one of several different series he created and continues to write about.
Being someone that was born in our country's biggest city but also someone who has always
had a connection to nature and the physical world, Jason's pedigree is one that gives him
both an interesting connection to what surrounds him, as well as a unique perspective that
he incorporates into his writing. Throughout the next couple of decades, Jason refined his
writing even further while creating new series and entering into new genres that he would
have never written in a long time ago. A lifelong student of history, Jason has incorporated
elements of important historical events into his work, and has also been inspired by them.
As of August 2025, Jason has become a four-time published writer. It started with his short
story 'Obsession' (2017), followed by'Spy' (2019), 'Feather' (2024), and now his latest in a
tale named 'Maelstrom' (2025). These professionally published manuscripts have given Jason
more drive and determination to not only keep himself 100% behind his passion, but to further
motivate him in producing literature of his own making. Jason never stops putting his heart and
soul into every manuscript that he writes, and has given much of himself in everything he writes.
Aside from writing, Jason's every day occupation lies in the automotive industry, something
he has returned to in recent years. Growing up in dealerships and auto shops thanks to his late
father, the automotive industry feels not only familiar, but considers it home. Jason's hobbies
and interests include fishing, reading, remote control vehicles, and tinkering with mechanical
objects. Jason is happily married with his new wife, Stephanie, and also lives with two cats
that make him laugh every day, as a reminder that we shouldn't take ourselves too seriously.
