“I only worked with Jason for a short time, but he proved himself to be an excellent manager. He understands that in order for the business to succeed his staff has to succeed as individuals and as a team. He cares about the people he manages, but still does what is necessary to make sure the company is able to grow and move forward.”

“I worked with Jason at First Web Marketing for almost a year. Before he joined our team, our process for creating websites was tedious. We were still using Dreamweaver and our small team at the time were not able to scale web development to the level we needed. When Jason came onboard, he completely revamped our process and product. He used his expertise to move our web development onto WordPress and created a much more efficient and effective creative and design process. The outcome was that our team was able to produce better work in a shorter amount of time. Clients were constantly impressed with the designs and web solutions Jason provided. Working alongside him was truly a pleasure. Aside from being smart, creative, and a problem-solving machine, Jason is very funny and laid back and I enjoyed the time I got to work with him.”

“Jason is one of the most creative people I have worked with who possesses a full range of technical skills. He completes projects on time and with marketing flair. Jason would be a valuable asset to any development team.”
