Jason brings a wealth of experience in golf fitness, nutrition, and wellness. Originally from Alexandria, VA, his love for sports began early, playing little league baseball and competing on his high school golf team. Introduced to golf by his grandfather at the age of 12, Jason's passion for the sport grew steadily. In 2004, after losing 100 pounds, he became a NASM-certified personal trainer, furthering his commitment to fitness. He also holds TPI level 2 and nutrition coach certifications. In 2022, Jason and his family moved to Florida, where he merged his fitness expertise with his love for golf as a Wellness Coach at VGCC. After two years of dedicated service to VGCC members and guests, he is now excited to take on his new role as the Wellness and Fitness Director.
