Jason began his career with positions in business and technology start-ups.  After graduating from Boston College Law School, he began his practice in the New York office of McDermott, Will, & Emery LLP.  There he developed his skills as a team leader in several internal corporate investigations, and even as a young associate was often trusted to handle critical oral arguments in state and federal court.

In addition to his practice, he has continued to pursue this passion through his volunteer efforts as a coach during Fordham Law School’s Mentor Moot Court Competition. He has also served as a moot court judge during the prestigious National Moot Court Competition co-sponsored by the New York City Bar Association.
