Meet Jon

Jon grew up in Woodbridge, CT where his parents continually emphasized the importance of reading and education. Upon graduating from Colby College in 2001, he moved to Boston to take a research position at Harvard University. Following a 2005 thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail, Jon moved to Jackson Hole, WY for a more adventurous and outdoors oriented lifestyle. He continues to work as a research consultant with Harvard University. Throughout his life, Jon has enjoyed reading for both pleasure and academic necessity. Progressing from the Hardy Boys to complex scientific papers, it all started at a young age. Reading and education have allowed Jon to follow his dreams. With knowledge garnered from literature, it is possible to make wise decisions and guide yourself through life. As he embarks on this new endeavor, he is excited to be benefiting the next generation through reading.
