Jason Crisp
Co-Founder & Chief Executive Officer
jcrisp@lisiglobal.com
Jason's experience has been earned over three decades of leading and motivating teams developing cutting-edge audio electronics, state-of-the-art medical imaging applications and, crucially, creating and advancing Lisi Global's Directed Energy Technology. Jason's vision and expertise is key to overcoming the challenges inherent in developing a once-in-a-generation technological breakthrough. A voracious consumer of information from research publications to the latest developments in energy control technology, Jason's commitment to learning (and teaching others along the way), is the driving force behind the technology's success. His understanding of the complex interactions between electricity and biology as they occur in the soil environment is unique and a critical barrier to entry.
While explaining the science behind a joule and its role in DE Technology's efficacy, you will also find Jason reminiscing about his best moments as an Olympic level kayaker and his favorite restaurant in Holland. With a profound balance between highly motivated and highly approachable, Jason is an incredible visionary, an effortless motivator and just plain fun to be around.
A graduate of the electrical engineering program at Purdue University, Jason's experience in high voltage technology was forged in the medical field. As Lead Service Engineer for TriMedix in Indianapolis, Jason and his team of ~ 20 engineers were responsible for keeping critical medical imaging equipment (MRI, x-ray, CT scanners, etc.) up and running no matter what. In 2012, he and partner Jeffery McComb formed Imaging Specialists, a regional medical imaging equipment service and sales business based in Richland, WA., committed to supporting imaging equipment in the underserved hospitals and clinics of the inland northwest.

As principal mechanical designer and fabricator Jeff has taken Jason's vision for DE Technology and made it a reality with every electronics prototype and treatment apparatus the team has built. When he's not utilizing his mechanical expertise he is pouring over the excruciating minutia of the company's numerous patent specifications, writing about every inventive step that the technology takes, building an impressive book of IP. Jeff brings a unique skill set to the team as a former logistics coordinator for professional sportscar and Indycar teams over a 13 year career in the industry. Those years in the fast-paced, high-pressure world of international motorsports taught Jeff to keep the big picture in focus while operating effectively amid the intricacies of his project management role. As COO, he shoulders the same responsibly of turning ideas into plans and plans into outcomes.
After graduating from East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania, Jeff pursued his passion for automobile racing working for several professional teams. His career culminated in a successful nine year stint as Team Coordinator for two high-profile CART and Indycar teams, Precision Preparation in California and Adrian Fernandez Racing in Indianapolis. After leaving racing, Jeff relied on his design aptitude and attention to detail in his role as insurance restoration estimator, writing nearly $30 million worth of accepted estimates before launching Imaging Specialists with business partner Jason Crisp.
