His length of time winning the award puts him in the top 1% of all advisors in the country who also have received the award.

Jonathan lives in Carlsbad where he enjoys many interests including hiking, biking on his mountain and e-bikes, reading history, and playing board games with his son. Originally from the Midwest, Jonathan has family still there and considers himself a Midwesterner at heart, although he loves the weather in California and says he'll likely never move back.
