Hi, I'm Jonathan. One time I built an Android app for Aura Frames and grew it with the company. I also like to travel and snowboard.

When I decided that my time at Aura was over, I knew that I had to let some things go. It was a long exhale, and I was very fortunate to be able to travel around the globe and do things that I love. Of course, the world kept changing while I was doing my thing. And I missed being an engineer.

I can't say anything new about AI, and I'm not sure I know anything that ChatGPT doesn't. Even still, this thing so easily captures my imagination as new worlds become possible. So my focus is to learn how to work with these tools, learn how they are made, and my goal is to be able to intuitively use them.

For my next role: I want to work with data. I enjoy programming. I'm interested in applying machine learning and ai tech in useful and inclusive ways.

## Work Experience

### Snowboard Instructor @ Vail Resorts
Jan 2022 – Jan 2023
I worked with the Park City - Canyons Resort team to help organize clients and lessons. I would be assigned a group for the day to teach. It was important to assess where each student was in their snowboarding journey so I could provide instruction to help them along. I found talking with other instructors to be beneficial in coming up with new and better strategies for lessons. There was also a strong community at Park City where I was able to take some electives to help further my skills.
