Jonathan, a stalwart member of the Academy Theatre TeenEnsemble, flourished under the guidance of Kenny Leon and Carol Mitchell-Leon in Atlanta, Georgia during the 1980s.
Subsequently, he delved into the realm of academia, studying the works of David Mamet at Depauw University in the early 1990s.
His unwavering passion for classic rock music was palpable, as he spent the majority of the 1990s and the millennium playing a fuzz-boxed bass guitar in bars throughout Athens, Georgia.
However, Jonathan's trajectory took a dramatic turn in July 2003, as he made his way to Hollywood, where he initially established himself as a principal Casting Director on feature films that premiered at Slamdance and the Tribeca Film Festival.
In a bold career move, Jonathan eschewed casting for a full-time acting career, earning his SAG card on the feature film Lightning Bug and promptly securing a principal role in a CBS sports promo alongside Samuel L. Jackson.
With his sights set on the spotlight, Jonathan never looked back, rapidly booking over a dozen national commercials, including a starring role in a 4th quarter Super Bowl spot.
Currently, he recurs on the hit television show Gilmore Girls, often found lurking in the shadows of Studio City, California's dark desert streets late at night.
