Hired as a fundraiser, Jon quickly established several multimillion-dollar revenue channels which allowed the organization to raise over $1B in less than 10 years.  Jon also served in several executive roles on the operations side of the organization, where he led international teams of over 100 staff members responsible for delivering services to over 100,000 wounded warriors and their families.  Jon’s efforts led to the organization growing to the 45th largest charity in the U.S., being named the Harris Poll Equitrends “Brand of the Year,” and the NonProfit Times “Best nonprofit to work for.” More importantly, the organization’s combined efforts forever changed the way wounded warriors are thought of and cared for in this country.In addition to his undergraduate degree, Jon earned a Master of Public Administration degree from the College of Charleston.  He lives in Jacksonville, FL with his wife, a local attorney, and two young children.  Despite having lived in the South for the past 3 decades, Jon remains a die-hard Bostonian and fan of the Patriots, Red Sox, Celtics and Bruins.
