About Jason

Founder, Entrepenuer, Executive Coach
The best part of my CEO journey was helping leaders grow and become better versions of themselves. As a Vistage Chair, I combine that servant leadership philosophy with best practices, peer groups, and executive coaching. High-performing CEOs and business leaders help our communities become stronger, healthier, and better places to live. I enjoy working with local leaders to achieve these outcomes. I love the San Antonio business community.

As a founding member of TechBloc where I served as an executive committee board member, and as a founding member of the Geekdom Board of Directors, I have worked alongside some of the finest leaders our city has produced. During that time, I was fortunate to build two companies in San Antonio: Grok Interactive and Codeup. These companies grew from ideas at Geekdom to employing hundreds of local tech workers over the following decade.

During my career, nothing had a greater impact on me than my membership in Vistage. It was transformative in my life, professionally and personally. I am excited to make the transition from Vistage member to Vistage Chair, where I can take my experience in business, leadership, and executive coaching to be helpful to the leadership of our community.
