Survivor: Kaoh Rong
Jason started off on To Tang, the Brawn tribe. He managed to form a majority alliance with Cydney Gillon, Scot Pollard, and Jennifer Lanzetti. Alecia Holden had the most trouble fitting in and seemed to annoy him a lot. Despite his conflict with Alecia, he spared her the first two Tribal Councils, opting to vote out Darnell Hamilton and Jennifer instead. The straw broke the camel's back after that, and Jason, Scot, and Alecia engaged in a tense Hidden Immunity Idol hunt where Jason ended up victorious. Jason's alliance finally voted out Alicia on Day 11, but with only three members going into the Tribal Switch, their position of power would be no more. Jason's post-swap tribe won all the Immunity Challenges during that phase of the game.
The Merge set up a showdown between original Brains and Brawn (plus Tai Trang and Julia Sokolowski, who Scot kept safe post-swap) vying for Nick Maiorano and Michele Fitzgerald as swing votes. Jason and Scot disclosed information about their idols to Nick in an effort to get him on board. Nick and Michele ultimately sided with Brawn. but Neal Gottlieb's evacuation cancelled Tribal Council. Knowing they were in power, Jason, Scot, and Nick grew overconfident. Nick did upset Cydney by checking on her and made her feel like she wasn't a valued member of the alliance. Thinking the Brains were still on the bottom and targeting Aubry Bracco, Jason was blindsided by the girls as Nick was voted out. Jason and Scot retaliated by making camp life miserable. At the Reward Challenge, one of the girls had to team up with Tai, Jason, and Scot after Jeff Probst allowed the contestants to choose their teams. Julia's decision to join Jason's team raised red flags for her alliance, particularly Aubry. At the next Tribal Council, Jason and Scot bluffed an idol play, and ultimately they survived with all their idols intact as the majority alliance targeted Debbie Wanner. With a super idol in their possession and individual immunity won, Jason felt powerful and gave an idol each to Scot and Tai. The plan was to put three votes on Aubry, and whoever received more votes out of Tai and Scot they would use their super idol to blindside Aubry. However, Tai ended up joining Aubry's alliance, voted out Scot, and refused to give Scot his idol. Scot left with an idol in his possession, and Jason was firmly on the bottom.
Unable to win further Immunity Challenges, Jason was left at the mercy of the other tribe members. He was spared at final seven at Julia's expense. Tai did what he could to convince his alliance to target Michele before Jason, but he couldn't even get Jason to vote with him. Tai's plan failed, and Jason was voted out on Day 32. Jason's Jury vote was undecided going into Final Tribal Council, but ultimately he voted for Michele to win.
