Jon is a trusted professional colleague who in addition to possessing a strong formal academic preparation, has the ability to blend contemporary ideas and techniques with an interdisciplinary approach.  Many people talk about teamwork, Jon lives it and leads it.  

For many years he has generously hosted and shared his knowledge with doctoral students that I have brought over from the US.   They continue to talk about how Jon’s innovative thinking combined with his integration of technology seems so logical when he shares his methods of instruction and application.
