Author Biography

Jason Hall was born in Atlanta, but spent his formative years living in Toronto. As if having southern roots, and a trunk made of Canadian class wasn't enough, he further diversified his tree of life, when he met his wife, Katie. By the age of nineteen, he had moved to her small town in New Hampshire, to start their life together. That's where his parenting journey began, with his first daughter. He struggled with being a young parent, husband, and the idea of being a responsible human being, but that struggle and adversity has led him to a wealth of knowledge and experience. Over the years, he tried everything from welding and floor installation, to car sales and meteorology, to provide for his family. He furthered his geographical diversification while serving in the US Air Force. After a few more children, and several moves around the country, he and his wife decided it was time to pick a place and settle down. They chose Florida, and that is where they reside today. He has always felt at home in the wilderness, so when he isn't working security for Walt Disney World, his family spends a lot of time on adventures, ranging from kayaking to fossil hunting. During his time in Florida, he started a blog offering advice on life, homeschooling, parenting, and marriage. His reasoning was based on his unique journey. A passion for writing and helping others inspired him to create this, his first book. His true focus is helping people be better in all aspects of life, and learning to think outside the box. His writings help others work through the struggle that is life, and give the generations to come a look into his mind, heart, and soul.
