Johnathan’s Master’s Programs Qualifications
I specialize in helping professionals transform their work experience, personal journey, and future ambitions into a cohesive and compelling narrative: no matter how disparate they may appear on a single-page résumé. This is especially valuable if you’re considering a career pivot to better align your work with your personal values. I earned my Master’s in Public Affairs, with a certificate in Science, Technology, and Environmental Policy, from Princeton’s School of Public and International Affairs while serving in the military. My professional career spans finance, the military, policy, government, social entrepreneurship, and technology. Along the way, I’ve published widely on policy and technology across a dozen outlets and was honored with a literary award in my field. If you want to craft your unique story into a powerful narrative for an admissions panel, or to strengthen your professional trajectory, I’d love to set up an introductory call to discuss your goals.
