Jason serves Living Vine Community Church as Associate Pastor of Operations.
A lifelong vocalist, his musical journey began singing special music in church and participating in community theatre in Southeastern Connecticut. This foundation led him to earn a Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance and Music Education from Ithaca College.
Following a formative residency with the vocal company of the College Light Opera Company in Falmouth, Massachusetts, he experienced a pivotal summer that culminated in surrendering his musical talents to the Lord and accepting a call into full-time ministry.
Upon graduation, Jason launched Crossroad Music; as a Christian recording artist, he released three albums—two of original music and one a collection of hymns and inspirational songs—while presenting concerts in churches throughout the United States. His extensive professional background includes serving on staff at diverse congregations of multiple sizes and denominations across Florida, Connecticut, Michigan, and Ohio. Complementing his ministry career, Jason has leveraged his passion for team development and exceptional customer service with premier organizations, including The Walt Disney Company and Chick-fil-A.
Jason also serves as the Coordinator of Worship Arts at Malone University, where he channels a lifetime of experience in music ministry into training the next generation of worship leaders.
Jason recently completed a Master of Arts in Ministry from Indiana Wesleyan University. He and his wife, Melissa, have two children: Sadie and Matthew.
