Jon is the host of U.S. of N/A, and also the Chief Hoptimist for N/ATION Beer, part of N/ATION Collaborative, LLC. Non-alcoholic beverages first became meaningful for Jon in the midst of some lifestyle realities, starting with approaching middle age. He begrudgingly came to the understanding that alcohol just hit different in terms of impacting sleep, hydration, and overall energy, especially in the middle of a work week (for more on his journey read his essay, here). 

Soon after he discovered non-alcoholic beer and AF beverages of all stripes, he quickly became hooked and felt compelled to start a digital platform to help others find the same. Jon is a native of Cleveland, Ohio, now living in the Atlanta, Georgia area with his wife and their three kids.
