Prior to RA, Jon was a Venture Creation Fellow at Flagship Pioneering.

Jon earned a Ph.D. in biomedical engineering from the University of Michigan where he performed research on histotripsy, a novel noninvasive ablation technique which uses extremely high-amplitude focused ultrasound pulses to homogenize tumors and other unwanted soft tissue targets into an acellular slurry via acoustic cavitation. He earned an M.S. in mechanical engineering from Boston University where he was a Dean’s Fellow and a B.S. in physics from the University of Washington. He worked professionally as a mechanical engineer for four years. Jon has authored 9 journal publications and is listed as an inventor on 7 issued patents.

Prior to this role, John served as Head of Operations, Health Platforms at Verily Life Sciences (Alphabet’s healthcare company, formerly Google Life Sciences) where he was responsible for leading product and business operations across a diverse portfolio, several commercial device development programs and, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Verily's Baseline COVID-19 and Healthy@Work testing programs that served millions of users. Before Verily, John spent five years at Apple, leading the development of several Watch modules from prototype through engineering, design, and production validation. Prior to Watch, he was responsible for onboarding new-to-Apple iPhone manufacturers across Asia. Early in his career, he gained experience on both sides of licensing academic intellectual property, first as a biotech entrepreneur and then as an Associate Director of a university technology commercialization office.
