In 2011, Jason was named marketing manager, overseeing the analytical and creative ingredients of the Oppy go-to-market strategy. Two years later, he was promoted to manager, category development, and then director, category development in 2014. He was honored as one of Produce Business Magazine's 40 Under 40 in 2016. He is a graduate of the Produce Marketing Association’s 2010 Emerging Leaders program, where he was elected by his classmates to represent them on the board of a major agricultural organization and also attended its High Performance Management Conference.
