RESOURCE MANAGER

After completeing a tour in Iraq, Jason returned to his relatively quiet home of Morristown, Indiana and got to work setting up a multi-day, multi-stage music festival in the town's local park. Throughout the 2010s MSMFest brought in a variety of local and national touring bands alongside movie screenings and art exhibits.

As the Resource Manager, Jason runs the material side of PUP, from acquiring to processing. There is a good chance he can tell you when and where your PUP product has come from.

In addition to PUP, Jason works as a tour guide at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum. He studied geography/urban planning and event management at IUPU and has a love for design study. He lives on the east side of Indianapolis with his wife and their four cats.
