Jason is the Curriculum and Assessment Coordinator at Haugland Learning Center in Columbus, Ohio. He started as a teacher in 2010 in Haugland’s Aspire Program and was a part of the first team to replicate the Morningside Model of Generative Instruction with students diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorders. While earning his degree in Electrical Engineering Technology he discovered his love for teaching while tutoring other students.

In July of 2012 he attended Morningside Academy's Summer School Institute. He has returned to Morningside Academy multiple times since his first visit for additional training in the areas of staff coaching and student assessment. In addition to his classroom curriculum and student assessment duties, Jason trains Haugland’s staff in many different instructional techniques, including Precision Teaching, classroom management, direct instruction, and mathetics. Jason has presented on behalf of Haugland at many professional conferences on the exciting techniques used at Haugland and the wonderful progress its students have made over the years. Jason will proudly tell anyone that asks that he has his dream job.

Outside of school, Jason loves spending time with his wife Beth, and their two dogs Dexter and Gracie. He likes getting outside and enjoys mountain biking, kayaking, and hiking.
