He is a graduate of South Harrison High School and attended College at Northwest Missouri State University where he received a Bachelor of Science Degree Magna Cum Laude in Accounting. Johnathan attended Law School at the University of Missouri at Kansas City - School of Law where on an accelerated track he obtained a Juris Doctor in Law and a Masters of Law (L.L.M.) in Taxation.

Johnathan spent nearly five (5) years working as a Law Clerk and Associate Attorney with the firm Pearman & Galamba, L.C. in Kansas City, Missouri and Overland Park, Kansas. His areas of practice while with this firm included: Domestic Relations, Contracts, Business Organizations, Tax Planning and Estate Planning. Due to the smaller size of the firm, he was able to gain valuable trial experience beginning very early in his legal career.

In December, 2001, Johnathan relocated to Northern California where he served a managerial role in a national sales and marketing firm that helped individuals and families purchase and begin home-based screen printing and advertising specialty businesses. In March, 2003, he relocated to Flagstaff, Arizona to become the Regional Director and In-House Counsel for BlueSky Personal Development, L.L.C., a company with the primary objective of owning and operating Sylvan Learning Centers in Flagstaff, Arizona and Prescott, Arizona.

Johnathan began commuting between Arizona and Bethany to open his practice in March, 2006.  He was married to Erin E. Meyer on July 4, 2006 in Prescott, Arizona and made the permanent move to Missouri with Erin and their son Sebastian later that month.  Their daughter, Jocelyn, was born in August, 2007 and the latest addition to the family, their son Tynan, was born in December, 2008.
