His current focus is Dream Valley House, a community clubhouse in one of the oldest villages in the French Alps, designed as a mountain basecamp for founders, entrepreneurs, and creatives.After moving to the mountains with his family, Jack experienced what he calls a "midlife retirement" due to Lyme disease, which led him to step back, slow down, and focus on family and health.
