About Jason

I’m a multi-genre author and screenwriter whose body of work spans high-concept speculative fiction, deeply researched historical nonfiction, and emotionally resonant character-driven drama. From an alternate-history rewrite of The Final Countdown with military-grade realism, to a Star Trek fan thriller exploring the origin story of Section 31, to a poignant meditation on unseen legacies, my scripts are designed for broad market appeal while offering sharp narrative intelligence. My published nonfiction includes a forthcoming book on the Catholic Church's use of fabricated history in their quest for power, praised by leading scholars, and I have recently completed a Daoist-inspired secular psychological guidebook with Professor Brook Ziporyn of the University of Chicago.

I have also just taken a position as a producer with Mbrella Films, a production services agency, in Thailand.

Unique traits: Not only do I have a passion for writing, I have an ability to see connections and patterns in my research.
