In addition to his practice, Jason is an accomplished author, having written numerous articles and a Bloomberg BNA Tax Management Portfolio on the taxation of collateralized loan obligations (CLOs). He is also a sought-after speaker at prominent events such as the New York State Bar Association (NYSBA) and the American Bar Association (ABA) conferences and Korea Blockchain Week, where he shares insights on tax and digital assets.
