Jonathan's family had moved around a bit when he was younger, but once he turned 10 years old, his family settled in Franklin, Tennessee. Being an athlete throughout school, Jonathan played a year of NCAA soccer in Wisconsin until a broken leg took him out for the season. Soon after, Jonathan decided to make the move back to Tennessee and attend school at MTSU. Knowing that sport, fitness and nutrition was his passion, he majored in Exercise Science with a minor in nutrition. Jonathan's experience included working with the MTSU strength and conditioning coaches as well as traveling with the Colorado Rockies while serving as an assistant strength and conditioning coach for their 2004 season.
