Hi, I’m Jonathan.
I help leaders build better systems, clearer operations, marketing that works, and stronger teams. When we work together, I’m drawing on 20 years of hard-won experience doing more with less.

I've spent my career leading mission-driven organizations through the kind of problems that don't come with a playbook. Tight budgets, growing teams, and the constant tension between the urgent and the important. Along the way, I've learned that the leaders who thrive aren't the ones with the most resources; they're the ones who build the right systems.

These days, I'm deep in the practical side of building tools that actually work for real operational problems. I write about what I'm learning, what I'm building, and what 20 years of leading people has taught me about doing more with less.


Get the thinking, not the noise.

I publish a newsletter on leadership and building systems that actually work.
No fluff, no hustle culture. Just honest, practical ideas from someone who's still in the middle of it.
I would be honored if you subscribed.

Here’s How I Can Help

Fractional Marketing Leadership

For nonprofits that need senior-level marketing and communications guidance without the full-time cost. Flat monthly retainer, no hourly surprises.

Systems, Marketing, and Operations Consulting

For operator-leaders drowning in the day-to-day and needing better systems. I help you figure out which tools actually help and build workflows to prove it.

I'm based in northern Colorado.
I fly fish badly and read constantly.
If any of this resonates, I'd love to connect.
