Cornucopia Institute
Jason is a returned Peace Corps volunteer from Ecuador where he helped small-scale farmers to employ sustainable agricultural practices in order to minimize their impact on highly valuable cloud forest habitat. In partnership with a local NGO, he developed agro-forestry projects that improved pasture productivity and reduced the need to clear virgin forest for new pasture. Prior to his Peace Corps service he worked for the U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management in the fields of forestry, botany, and hydrology.
Jason holds a Master of Public Policy degree from the University of Arizona, and a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Sciences from The Evergreen State College in Olympia, WA.
