Jonathon grew up in Rochester and learned deeply about nonviolence in many forms while incarcerated, including becoming a trainer with the Alternatives to Violence project as well as learning and then teaching Nonviolent Communication through the Gandhi Institute.

Jonathon teaches and speaks on nonviolence in a variety of community settings.
