Bio

Jonathan is an expert generalist whose 18 year operating career spans consulting, corporate management, and entrepreneurship across diverse sectors including consumer marketplaces, solar energy, and enterprise SaaS. He is passionate about product management, design thinking, and forecasting, which he loves mentoring in and teaching to new founders. Jonathan began his career at P&G where he held senior management roles in product management, technology development, supply chain, and manufacturing, and lived in the US, Venezuela, and China. He co-founded a consumer technology company, has consulted for early stage companies in product design, brand strategy, and financial modeling, and held executive roles in a variety of startups across markets including neurological health, fintech, and e-commerce. Jonathan ventured to the investor side to amend for sins/mistakes of his own founder past. As a control investor, he targets special situations of mid-tech stage companies that no longer fit the venture capital investment model, and are in need of operational transformation. Jonathan is a proud father to three daughters and a rat terrier/lab mix, and speaks English, Chinese, and Spanish. He has authored 8 patents and visited 66 countries.
