Rediscover connection through heartfelt poetry.

Grit, grace, and verse.

As a poet and seventh-generation Texan, Jason draws inspiration from a lifetime of colorful characters and Southern charm, exploring themes of wanderlust, nostalgia, place, identity, and the extraordinary in everyday life. Also passionate about Latin America, he sometimes features its people, places, and events in these works. His poems have been featured in anthologies, books, newspapers, magazines, and even at international literary festivals across Central and South America. Besides poetry, Jason has a diverse entrepreneurial background in tech, publishing, PR, and songwriter advocacy.

  • "I discovered your poetry yesterday, and its edginess and soulful paths are going to contribute to keeping me on the path to stay alive ... your poems have reminded me of why I need to be here. I write to you from a remote desert wilderness, where I am camping through the winter. Thank you, Jason, for the gift of your poetry."

  • "You're such an articulate voice, for I feel like I'm a transplanted Texan listening to you describe the place in your poetry. I'm really enjoying it and wanted to let you know that you have an appreciative audience."

  • "Really love your poetry. Reading this on a flight to Madrid, remembering trips where I searched for arrowheads as a young girl."

  • "John Updike wrote some good, and humorous, poems about golf, but in all my poetry reading over the years I've never encountered a poem with a driving range in it, and that's the kind of specificity that I enjoy."
