Meet The Team Getting You Your Phix - The Ultimate Phixer

BJ was the visionary, but he couldn't run this business alone. So in swooped Jason, who has been aptly given the name of Ultimate Phixer (our fancy way of saying General Manager).

Jason (He/him/they/them) is thrilled to lead the team at Phix!

For nearly 30 years Jason has been a passionate Cannabis user and enthusiast. He has had a varied and diverse career and has lived in ten different states. His Dad was in sales and growing up they moved quite a bit for job opportunities; living in: Massachusetts, New Jersey, North Carolina, Southern California and settling in the Chicago suburbs when Jason was a Sophomore in HS. Jason stayed in Illinois for college, attending Illinois State University and graduating with a degree in Acting from the Theater Department. After college Jason lived in Chicago for many years, briefly trying to be an actor but mostly working backstage jobs at various theater companies around Chicago.

Eventually, Jason realized there wasn’t much of a future for him in that industry so he tried a career as a Flood & Fire Restoration Technician. That job wasn’t a good fit either, so he tried food service for a few years. A career with Chipotle Mexican Grill allowed Jason to leave Chicago and relocate to Colorado. While living in Colorado Jason was able to be Prescribed a Medical Marijuana Card and for the first time ever participate in the legal cannabis industry. He also transitioned into the Retail Grocery industry while in Colorado, and soon was moving around the country again opening new stores and gaining promotions. During this exciting time Jason lived in Sedona, AZ - Austin, TX and Reno, NV. While living in Reno, Jason was able to drive to visit his Brother and Family and his Mom and Dad who had all relocated to Las Vegas. 

After a year in Reno, Jason was able to transfer again with his company to Las Vegas in order to help his family with his father’s ailing health. While living in Vegas for six years Jason was able to purchase his first home and help to see his family through his father’s illness and passing. The desert did not make Jason happy however and he jumped at the chance to move to Michigan last year and help a long time friend - who he originally met in acting class at ISU - to open Phix. Jason is very passionate about music and his favorite thing to do is see live music shows. He also loves: movies, TV, cooking, painting, walking, camping, backpacking, building Lego models, and snuggling with his cats Indica (Indy) and Sativa (Sati).
