Jason Dinges grew up in Winchester, VA just like Patsy Cline. He got an Associates degree from the local community College before transferring to The (now defunct) College of Santa Fe, where he barely earned a BA in the Moving Image Arts. He moved to Portland, OR for no reason whatsoever in 2003. He ended up playing music, touring as much as possible & then eventually finding his way onto film sets in 2009. He's been turning heads as "the most handsome grip" in the industry ever since.
Because of his handsomeness, he then became a Father in 2018 . That's when he decided to get a "real" job. He drives for UPS now. He has since been voted "Most Handsome UPS driver ever" by a lot of people.
