Aside from music and entrepreneurship, Jon is an adventurer extraordinaire. He is a Class V whitewater kayaker and finds as much happiness on a river as he does sitting at a piano bench.

He is married to a beautiful woman named Zina and has four incredible children--Carter, Brooklyn, Aaron, and Jacob. He finds his greatest joys in spending time with them and watching them all succeed in their various strengths.

Aside from all of the above, Jon has played the guitar for over 20 years, the saxophone for over 25 years, and he plays a dozen other instruments. He is an accomplished gymnast and coach, trained in English riding on horses, and loves to mountain bike whenever he can. When there's snow in the mountains, he is ready to ski until his legs give out.

Jon loves to read and write and has been published over 50 times in many of the top tech journals and websites, writing about technology, entrepreneurship, and leadership. He is currently writing a book that will be revealed in due time.

Jon's broad ranges of interests lead him to always be looking for time to squeeze it all in, but the one thing that never seems to slip is his music. He loves bringing more peace to the world in all that he does, and he has a natural gift for bringing peace into a room with just a few notes on the piano.

He plays a Bechstein Model D, which is one of the nicest pianos in the entire world. Of all things to which he has devoted time and attention, the piano takes the cake.

Jon hopes that pianists everywhere can find joy in playing his music, listening to it on the go, and maybe even working with him to write music for their own projects and passions.
