Jon joined Statler Nagle in 2013 upon returning to Washington, D.C. after working on 17th Surgeon General of the United States Richard Carmona’s U.S. Senate campaign in Arizona. He works closely with founding partners Jean Statler and Tom Nagle on the day-to-day management of Statler Nagle, engages with clients, and manages program staff for the company’s collaborative marketing programs. Spending his formative years on political campaigns, his sense of competitiveness and urgency drives projects forward.
Jon grew up in Tucson, Arizona before attending Luther College in Decorah, Iowa where he played basketball and graduated with a B.A. in history. He completed his Master’s Degree in Public Administration and Policy at the University of Arizona, during which time he began volunteering on Gabrielle Giffords’ re-election campaign in his free time while also working as a dishwasher and law firm assistant. This experience led him to a position as campaign manager for Pima County Supervisor Ann Day, where he gained connections and experience that landed him a job at DCI Group in Washington, D.C. upon graduation in 2009.
