About Jason
Hi, my name is Jason, a husband to my wife Katie of 24 years and proud dad to three amazing young adult children who share our love for Jesus and zest for life.
I thrive in the outdoors, whether playing baseball, golfing, snow skiing, fly fishing, riding horses, or relaxing by a campfire with friends and camping. My faith, rooted in a commitment to Jesus as my lord and savior as a teenager, has guided me through an adventurous life.
Starting out serving as a youth pastor in Oregon leading transformative houseboat camps on Lake Shasta and mission trip to LA’s skid row, to launching and leading businesses for over 20 years as a successful entrepreneur, with all the fun of business has to offer, I’ve tackled good and the challenges with vision and resiliency.
An injury introduced me to horsemanship as therapy, sparking a passion for training and riding horses. The past couple years I have been training race horses professionally and Now, God is opening doors in a new way to combine my love with my calling to help teenagers draw closer to Him, using God’s amazing horse the Wild Mustang. To foster healing and peace in the wilderness helping teens find their way to the feet of Jesus. >JN
