Jason won many awards for his playing, including the Clifford-Brown Stan Getz Fellowship from the National Association for Advancement of the Arts and many performance awards from Berklee College of Music. As a student, he also performed with the Greater Boston Youth Symphony.

Jason studied jazz bass with Bruce Gertz at Berklee College of Music, then obtained a Master's degree in classical bass performance from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst.

He also has an extensive background in environmental science and education, holds a Masters degree in ecology from the University of Florida, and has done field research in Costa Rica, and worked as a ranger for the National Park Service.
