Experience Built in High-Impact Weather

Jason began his television career in 2002 and has worked at stations across New York, New England, Appalachia, the Carolinas and the Gulf Coast.

While working at WCSH-TV/WLBZ-TV in Portland and Bangor, Jason developed audience-first digital communication strategies that generated more than 10 million impressions across broadcast, streaming, social media and digital platforms. His weather explainers generated more than 650,000 views, and his Hurricane Lee coverage reached YouTube’s worldwide trending list.

As chief meteorologist at KADN-TV/KLAF-TV in Lafayette, Louisiana, Jason led live coverage and multi-platform public communication during hurricanes, tornado outbreaks, flash flooding and other rapidly changing emergencies. His Gulf Coast experience included Hurricanes Laura, Delta and Ida.

Throughout his career, Jason has focused on making complicated information clear, relatable and useful—especially when people are making important decisions for their families, businesses and communities.

More Than a Forecast
