From his devastating motocross injury as a teenager to his path to overcoming obstacles, to his success as an adaptive sports champion, coach and mentor, Jason’s search for his “true north” can help and inspire all of us. Jason believes that a combination of factors is common to all successful initiatives with: the need for physical health, clear vision, the ability to adapt thought processes to life’s inevitable ruts, and an accountability coach.
