Jason " Opey" Brand in 2000
As the Senior Class President and one of the renowned, original "Village Idiots" of the graduating class of 2000 at Washington Massillon High School, Jason "Opey" Brand has seen his fair share of football games and town politics. While his days as a Village Idiot have long since been over, he continues to bring Spice and Pizzazz to his community by investing it its future. Jason is a proud Massillon native, and has many passions in life.
During high school, Jason was active in many sports and student government (obviously), and was a welcome presence throughout the town of Massillon. He enlisted in the Ohio Army National Guard in 2000, prior to his graduation.

She attended Kent State University and graduated 2009 with a Bachelor's of Science with a Major in Architecture and went on to attend Kent Graduate School of Management to earn an MBA in Marketing. During her education in the CAED (College of Architecture and Environmental Design), she spent a semester abroad in Florence, Italy (pictured) and traveled all over Europe, learning so much about the culture and Architecture.
