Jonathan focuses on international and domestic business transactions and securities. He discovered his love of foreign locales, people, and languages in his early adult years after moving from “small town” Wisconsin, to Hong Kong and then to Sichuan, China. Jonathan is fluent in Mandarin and Cantonese Chinese and consistently works to enhance his language and business expertise so he can best assist his clients at Harris Bricken with their varied international and domestic projects.
Jonathan studied international business and international law at The George Washington University in Washington, D.C., earning both JD and MBA degrees. He describes himself as a businessperson who went to law school rather than a lawyer who studied business. Jonathan’s business clients value his ability to think like a business owner as he provides sound legal guidance while maintaining key business issues at the forefront of the discussion.
In his spare time, Jonathan enjoys spending time with his young family, bouncing on their trampoline, playing hide-and-seek, enjoying the outdoors, playing any sport involving a ball, learning guitar, and working on his Spanish.
