He is a military veteran, local businessman, and deeply involved in his community through both political and charitable activities. Jay has a love of history and is especially interested in the role that Mt. Vernon and George and Martha Washington played in our nation’s founding and the impact they had on our society’s long success and stability.
"Discover the real George Washington at Mount Vernon! In addition to being America’s most visited historic home, the estate now includes 25 interactive galleries and theaters. The Ford Orientation Center and the Donald W. Reynolds Museum & Education Center feature artifacts, original movies, hands-on exhibits, and an immersive Revolutionary War "snow" experience. Learn about Washington’s life, from his boyhood to his wartime service, agricultural entrepreneurship, and his presidency.
