Born and raised in Aloha Oregon, educated at Oregon State University and had his first startup experience interning at Strands Labs Inc.
At Strands he saw the company raise $50 Million, grow from 30 to 155 people, and build numerous products. With that knowledge he set off to Seattle to run an office for Strands where he eventually broke away from strands to pursue CoCollage with 4 developer friends.

Over the last 10 years, Jon led partner marketing and B2B sales at Microsoft and T-Mobile working with field sales and resellers.

He wore the Lead Developer hat for the State of Washington, where he managed other developers in crafting software to improve the state’s efficiency in delivering college financial aid for students. At CoCollage he leads the way in crafting the architectural vision of CoCollage. He heads up the analysis work and hammers out details to pave the way for Getting-Things-Done.

Jeff headed the automated testing group with Boeing ENOVIA. He helped manage a team of seven contract workers performing manual testing of software while helping debug code and migrating manual testing into automate testing suites. With CoCollage he does it all; debugs code, QA tests, UI design, programs in flash, create artwork, copy writing and bring in delicious treats for the team.
