As a founding member of UFO media company Open Minds, Jason served as a writer and editor for the now defunct Open Minds Magazine—an internationally distributed print magazine focused on UFOs and extraterrestrials. He was also an organizer and the technical producer of the International UFO Congress for five years—an event recognized by the 2015 Guinness World Records as the largest annual UFO conference in the world. He has appeared on Geek & Sundry, Syfy, NatGeo, and he co-starred on History’s Hangar 1: The UFO Files. Jason’s articles have been published by several media outlets including Geek Magazine, Tech Times, and Tom DeLonge's To The Stars.
