Jason grew up in Delta, Ohio—just west of Toledo. After moving to Arizona to attend the Pima Medical Institute, he joined the ProActive Physical Therapy team. Jason chose physical therapy as a result of interest in physiology and kinesiology. He truly enjoys studying those topics.

Outside of the clinic, Jason enjoys coaching and watching his children’s sporting activities.
