ORBA: Were you an enthusiast before you made a career out of it, or did work bring you into the off-road community?
Jason: I was an enthusiast from the start, having a father that was a car dealer. I discovered the off-road community when I joined Four Wheeler as their Western Sales Manager prior to its sale to The Enthusiast Network.
ORBA: What’s your preferred adventure vehicle?
Jason: My preferred adventure vehicle is the latest one I’m testing, although the ’14 Toyota FJ Cruiser that I’ve thoroughly modified is one of my favorites. An adventure van is next on the list.
ORBA: Can you tell us a little bit about your current projects?
Jason: Editor of ProjectVanLife.com, Senior Editor of OutdoorX4 Magazine, a contributor to Adventure Rigs, Tread, DRIVE!, Street Trucks, Outside/Outside Business Journal, RVLife, vanlifers.com and Campersmarts.com, Trucks Plus in Canada and Cahaba Media’s The SHOP and RV Pro Magazine, both trade publications. I continue to support SEMA News, Off-Road Business Association (ORBA), Tread Lightly! and SIMA, the Surf Industry Members Association. Cleaning up areas in which we recreate and the oceans are of equal importance to me.
Welcome, Jason!
