“Jason was a pleasure to work with in our time together at the Bull Moose Republicans. Seeing our site and information infrastructure through multiple iterations, Jason always had a great sense of the pulse of innovation on the internet, incorporating that into each redesign to ensure we stayed at the edge of the curve. Jason went beyond mere technical expertise or mechanistic application of technologies like blogs or social networking, instead understanding what they were to "do" for our site and our organization, and shaping their use accordingly. He was always responsive and proactive, with strong personal skills and an ability to help you best explore and explain what it was you wanted from your IT, allowing him to better execute in support of the organization's mission. I would work with Jason again in a heartbeat.”
