About Jon
With over 15 years in IT and 6 years specializing in global IT M&A integrations, I've led cross-functional teams across 10+ time zones and managed multiple large-scale projects in parallel. My expertise spans program management, strategic planning, M&A integration, IT infrastructure, and AI-accelerated delivery—helping companies integrate acquisitions faster, more efficiently, and with less disruption.
What Colleagues Say
"I had the opportunity to work with Jon during a couple of complex M&A projects, and his program management skills were outstanding. What impressed me most was his ability to know each small task and dependency while never losing sight of the bigger picture. He always knew exactly where things stood at the detailed execution level and at the overall program level.
Equally impressive was his ability to bridge the gap between technical teams and business stakeholders. He could dive deep into technical discussions with the team one moment, then clearly communicate risks, timelines, and impacts to executive and business leaders the next. That ability to translate across audiences was critical to the success of the migrations. Any organization would be fortunate to have Jon leading complex, cross-functional initiatives."
— Matthew Maher, VP at Netwoven
"Jon is a fantastic project manager who knows how to get things done under tough conditions with tight timelines with a very rapid ramp up in skills and capabilities to achieve project goals and objectives. He learns extremely quickly ('sucks knowledge up like a sponge' is what another coworker said of him), and incredibly open to learning new things and mentoring. Quite honestly, Jon was the one and only coworker whose efforts on a high-visibility project went so well so early on in his project management role that I called an impromptu meeting with Jon, Jon's manager, and his manager's manager (a director) to verbally praise him in front of his immediate management chain so they would get the message — I was that impressed!"
— Brian Galloway, Senior IT Project Manager at Keysight Technologies
