Jon helps clients take bold creative risks and venture outside their comfort zone, collaborating with stakeholders across creative, strategic, production and client teams to to blend ideas, technology, and a bit of mischief into work that not only entertains but also delivers real business impact. 

Before joining Saatchi & Saatchi, Jon spent over 17 years honing his craft at agencies like BBDO, JWT and Barton F. Graf, and served as creative innovation lead at IPG’s Media Lab, where he developed boundary-pushing, tech-driven campaigns. The robots are going to kill us all some day, but until then, Jon is happy to collaborate with them!

A graduate of Yale University with an utterly useless dual-degree in History and English, Jon is also a professional musician and music producer who has composed music for everything from TV ads to NY Times apps to an episode of MTV’s Teen Mom 2.

When not working, he’s likely rock climbing with his daughter, surfing, or finding other painful ways to discover the limits of his aging body.
