Hi, I'm Jon — I recently left Google after the acquisition of Alter in 2022.
Before that, I spent the last decade building products and businesses that leverage our relationship with technology.
Background
My free time is focussed on my wife & 2 kids — my interests span epistemology, sci-fi books, padel and electronic music. I grew up in Venezuela, played competitive waterpolo, studied Architecture at Pratt and did research at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. I'm a proud Jew.
