Jon has lived all over the U.S.–from Boston to Hawaii–and now resides in San Rafael in Marin County. He was drawn to Green Foothills because of his long-standing interest in environmentalism and planning/land use and his deep commitment, as a trail runner and hiker, to preserving the Bay Area’s beautiful natural environment for future generations.
Jon is currently a Director in LinkedIn’s Legal Department, focusing on legal matters relating to artificial intelligence, data governance, and LinkedIn’s strategic initiatives. Before LinkedIn, Jon worked in the Technology Transactions and Privacy groups at Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati PC and Sidley Austin LLP. He holds a JD from the University of Pennsylvania Law School and an AB in History and American Studies from the College of William and Mary. Jon is also an advisory board member for the International Association of Privacy Professionals and OneJustice, and a member of the Sierra Club, the Friends of the Inyo, and the Friends of China Camp.
In his spare time, Jon enjoys native plant gardening, trail/ultra running, biking, hiking, and exploring the great outdoors.
