After numerous classes and his experience with high-school theater his first booking came when he was 17 as the character Grey, a murder victim on the web-series Blue Steele. This personal success lead him to use his creative intuition of acting to make his own short films as a teenager. Which instantly sparked a fascination for the technical side of films. After studying in film school he found his creative intentions weren't being met, but felt inspired by the experience to create his first official short film "Separate Sights" (2020) with his other passionate filmmaker friends. Around the same time his career in acting suddenly picked up, when he landed the role of a non-verbal kid with autism, Kayden Peterson, in "When Time Got Louder" (2020) making this Jonathan's feature debut. Growing up Jonathan has found himself to be confused and behave differently when socializing, he then found out at the age of 11 he was diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome, which explained the reason for some of his behaviors.
