Jason Thomas became involved with InterVarsity at Western Michigan University after growing up as a second-generation South Asian American in the Detroit metro area. Jason was a student leader with InterVarsity at Western Michigan University at a time when the chapter grew from 25 to 350 students.
After graduating with a degree in accounting he worked as a CPA with Ernst & Young for five years. But Jason sensed a call to pursue kingdom significance rather than worldly success. His first role with InterVarsity was as a volunteer while working in his CPA job. He later became a Campus Staff Minister, and then Area Director, Regional Director, and National Field Director. Now, as InterVarsity's Chief Campus Ministry Officer, Jason's focus is on leading InterVarsity's mission to students and faculty.
Jason and Andrea have been married for 22 years. They moved from Kalamazoo, Michigan, to Austin, Texas, in 2005. Jason loves to play basketball, read leadership books, travel to visit friends, play strategy games, and watch his three children perform in choir concerts and sporting events.
