Jon earned his bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science from West Chester University. The exercise science curriculum prepares individuals to prescribe and administer exercise programs in a variety of clinical settings.
Following his graduation from West Chester University, Jon obtained his personal training certification through the American Council on Exercise (ACE).
Like all other EPT trainers, Jon is also a Certified Functional Nutritionist (CFNP). This certification allows Jon to provide nutritional counseling from a holistic perspective.
Instead of rigid and fad diets that in the end fail, Jon helps clients make permanent nutritional changes. He does this by helping clients develop healthy eating habits that are scientifically accurate and clinically proven while being sustainable.
Before joining EPT in 2023, Jon worked as a Corporate Fitness Manager and Personal Trainer in Philadelphia at One Liberty Place. He managed the corporate fitness center, constructing personal training programs, and teaching group exercise classes.
Jon has a diverse clientele which allows him to utilize his knowledge of musculoskeletal systems to analyze each client's abilities while training. Jon's passion, educational background, clinical experience, and both personal training and nutritional certifications allow him to help his clients prevent disease and promote health.
