Raised amidst the mist and fog of San Francisco, Yev now lives in Pittsburgh with his wife and young son. He began his career in live sports broadcasting with the San Francisco Giants before making the jump into feature films, working his way up from camera assistant to camera operator.
Today, he collaborates with the Inner Action Media team to craft visual stories, drawing from a background that spans both live sports and narrative filmmaking. Outside of work, he can usually be found “wrestling” with his son — or proudly watching him attempt to break personal records in jumping very, very high.
Jason Allen is the Community Relations & Business Development Coordinator at Inner Action Media, where he leads relationship-driven growth efforts and supports many of the agency’s long-standing clients. Known for his personable approach, Jason thrives on connecting with people, understanding their challenges, and helping them identify clear, actionable strategies to move their organizations forward.
Jason has been married to his high school sweetheart, Jessica, for 24 years. They have three children: Isabella, a freshman at WVU; Elisabeth, a junior at MHS; and Matthew, an eighth-grader at South Middle School, who bring joy, purpose, and plenty of activity to everyday life. Faith also plays a central role for Jason, and he remains actively involved at Chestnut Ridge Church in Morgantown.
Beyond his work, Jason is committed to strengthening his community. He regularly participates in local initiatives and seeks meaningful opportunities to build connections that make a positive impact across West Virginia.
