I exist to help those who are far behind the starting line catch up to everyone else and equip them with the tools necessary to become self-sufficient and maintain a healthy lifestyle, both physically and mentally.\u201d Jonathan achieved a Bachelor of Business Administration from Western Michigan University and a Master of Public Health from Dartmouth College.<\/p>\n
