Founder and author. Jon builds companies, writes books and lives the habits he writes about.
Personal philosophy
Small efforts upstream. Big effects downstream.
Jon believes a successful life is one you design. Success in designing your life comes from small, consistent efforts made upstream. Over time they turn into big results downstream in health, wealth and happiness.
He has run his life on those rules for decades. He journals daily, eats cleanly, moves his body, and engages in activities that give life purpose and dimension.
A career dedicated to growth
A career spent building.
Jon has spent two decades building companies at the intersection of financial services, longevity and health. He holds an undergraduate degree from the University of Colorado and a law degree from the University of Minnesota.
In 2006, he co-founded a major life insurance finance company with a European money center bank. He served as its chief executive officer until March 2019, when he was bought out. He went on to create a saliva-based molecular longevity biomarker company for use in life insurance underwriting.
Today he is the founder and chief executive officer of LongevityFP. LongevityFP works at the intersection of wealth, health and longevity. Longevity Financial Advisors is focused on helping retirees’ financial resources last as long as life does. LongevityFP Technologies is focused on next-gen underwriting that changes how the life insurance industry measures longevity.

Driven to give
Giving back where it counts.
Jon believes in giving back where you can make a difference. He serves as a trustee of the Sabes Family Foundation, whose mission is to support higher education, health organizations, and children and families in need.
He is the co-founder of the Sauna Research Foundation, a 501(c)(3), with Dr. Hans Hägglund, Dr. Earric Lee and Glenn Auerbach of SaunaTimes. The foundation’s mission is to support the science of heat therapy and its benefits for the mind, body and spirit. In 2026, the foundation held the first International Heat Therapy Research Symposium in Oslo, Norway, with 15 scientists from 9 countries.
In his words
“Life is about the journey, and I want to make it as big and fulfilling as possible. I’ve learned that when I prioritize my mental and physical health, I can better focus on helping others.”
