"Jonathan demonstrated quick adaptability and has been eager to take on new software, as well as develop his skills as a leadership figure. A joy to work with, he has earned the trust of his peers and those he oversees due to his collaborative and diligent nature. He is able to take complex situations and work through them seamlessly while taking the time to ensure all perspectives are taken into account."
Colleague at Deloitte Consulting
"He created the first-ever official donor program for a 10-year-old nonprofit organization. He thoughtfully orchestrated a digital content structure that honored the fundraising strategy and carefully communicated the need, recognizing triggers and automatically transitioned committed donors to long-term giving options. And he did all of this while working remotely and fitting in nicely with the tight knit fabric of [the] organization. I'd hire Jonathan again in a heartbeat if I could. He always has a positive and professional attitude in all of his communications and any organization would count themselves lucky to have him."
