Jason, born in Green Bay, Wisconsin, was born with Sturge-Weber Syndrome
30 years ago, a time when the medical journals had only one paragraph about SWS.
He graduated from Southwest High School, and continued on to earn a horticulture
certificate degree from Northeast Wisconsin Technical College. He utilizes his education
experiences in caring for the landscape of his rural home in Abrams, Wisconsin. In
addition to lawn care and gardening, Jason is the caregiver to his cat, 3 dogs, and 2
horses.
In order to help him through tough times and the struggles of SWS, Jason is the
author of a book entitled, “Dealing with Sturge-Weber Syndrome, A Reason Not to Give
Up”. In addition to the book helping Jason cope with his personal despair, the book has
“In order to help him through tough times
and the struggles of SWS, Jason is the
author of a book entitled, ‘Dealing with
Sturge-Weber Syndrome, A Reason Not to
Give Up’.”

He is an accomplished business owner, the sole proprietor of a company he started
called JR’s EnviroCycle. Only 4 years young, Jason has increased his clientele from
1 (his family) to 100 families and businesses. Jason continues his journey by raising
awareness through his business endeavors and donates 25% of his business profits to
the Sturge-Weber Foundation.
When Jason is not being an advocate of SWS, he enjoys fishing with his dad, clay
pigeon shooting with his brother, and going to the stock car races with his uncle.
