Board of Trustees

Jason Moore
Chair
Orka Group*
Mr. Moore is co-founder of Orka Group, an investment firm with an operating style based on values-driven leadership that delivers a culture of high performance, trust, and long-term success. Prior to co-founding Orka Group, Mr. Moore spent 12 years as an executive leader for two dynamic corporations: Advanced Drainage Systems (ADS) and IGS Energy (IGS). At ADS, he served as General Manager for Canada and Distribution Centers. At IGS, he was a member of the executive cabinet responsible for strategic direction, culture, and financial results.
Early in his career he and his brother were the first US Tim Hortons franchisees with 4 restaurants operating 24 hours a day. He credits this experience with sparking his enthusiasm for leadership and understanding the need for endurance and persistence.
Mr. Moore has a deep passion for our community, especially helping young people realize their potential. This brought him to Cristo Rey Columbus, where the unique combination of high-quality education and professional work experiences give students an opportunity to not just succeed, but to be a part of something bigger than themselves.
He and his wife, Betsy, have been happily married for 26 years and he is the devoted father to 4 active children; Armonde, Hall, Rawlins, and Mac.
