Years of helping organizations enable digital natives through one to one laptop/tablet programs have newly opened Jason’s eyes to the opportunities provided by the Maker Toolset and Design Thinking processes. Witnessing the difference a tactile, constructivism approach makes to increase students’ creativity and problem solving intelligence is a highlight of his work.
Jason can often be found working with charitable and social entrepreneurship projects at home and abroad. He is an avid musician and father, both of which foster the growth mindset of a life-long learner.
