Jason is a family descendent of the famous inventor and entrepreneur Thomas Edison, for whom the firm is named after. Jason believes that hard work, stick-to-itiveness, and common sense, are the hallmark characteristics of a trusted engineer and has made these characteristics the foundation of Edison’s approach.

Jason takes pride in helping educate, engage and empower his clients in their building repair projects. Leveraging over 25 years of construction and engineering experience he designs and presents common sense solutions that are customized to his client’s objectives. Jason is known for developing long term relationships built on trust and reliability. He is rigorously educated, experienced, and committed to a Code of Ethics that puts client’s first. Jason supports the Edison Team to provide clients with the insight and knowledge they need to implement informed strategies for their buildings.

Outside of work Jason spends time with his family. He plays hockey and golf, maintains a small portfolio of income properties, is an avid reader, and loves to learn through travel.
