Jason is an avid Texas Longhorns fan, which makes football season lively thanks to his business partner Tyler, a loyal Texas A&M Aggie.
Family is Jason’s greatest joy, especially his growing crew of grandchildren, Riley and Joseph. He’s also never far from his beloved Goldendoodle, Brooklyn. A dedicated member of his community, Jason is a lifetime member of both the Texas Exes and the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.
