Jason has been an integral part of many successful nonprofit and for-profit companies. His own personal mental health journey is the motivation behind his recent focus on the global mental health crisis. He is passionate about developing a comprehensive mental health center to address the fractured and confusing system. Just after college, Jason became a professional firefighter/EMT in Scottsdale, Arizona and started his first company, Trinity Landscape. A few years later he decided to leave his career as a firefighter to co-found 1MISSION with his wife, Tina. 1MISSION is a community development organization, giving people in poverty the opportunity to earn a house by serving their community. Since 2008, 1MISSION has built over 950 houses throughout Mexico, El Salvador, and Nicaragua, with house recipients completing more than 200,000 hours of community service. Jason is also a co-founder of Mission Create, a non-profit incubator that successfully launched over 90 nonprofits throughout the United States and The Zach Hoffpauir Project, a nonprofit bringing mental health resources to student athletes. He also serves on the board of the Global CHE Network, representing 625+ organizations in 126 countries focused on serving the physical and spiritual needs of people. Jason is also partners in several for-profit ventures including the Bellair Golf Park, a 75 acre, 18-hole golf ‘park’ in Phoenix, Arizona where he lives with his wife and their four children.
