Jason joined
ABC5 in February 2012 as the morning reporter/photographer, after about a year
at the NBC affiliate in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, and two internships at KARE 11 in Minneapolis.
He graduated
from the University of Minnesota and majored in Broadcast
Journalism. It was there that he covered
Gopher sports for Radio K, the campus radio station.
Growing up in
the Twin Cities, Jason is a big fan of the Timberwolves, Twins, Vikings and of
course…the University of Minnesota
Golden Gophers.
When he's not
working really early in the morning, Jason enjoys both playing and following
sports, listening to good music and spending time with friends and
family.
