Head Counselor
Big-picture strategy, family partnership, and final review
Team-based by design
Every family has a Head Counselor who understands the full picture and coordinates a team of specialists around one coherent plan. The right person joins at the right time while the plan stays personal and connected from beginning to end.
Students are not limited by one counselor’s specialty. Their Head Counselor holds the full picture, brings in deeper expertise when it matters, and makes sure every contribution supports the same strategy.

Founder & Head Counselor
Jon founded Telos in 2011 around a simple conviction: students grow when someone takes the time to understand who they are, not just where they are applying. Today he brings that relationship-first philosophy to the team, guiding big-picture strategy and helping every specialist stay connected to the student’s greater purpose.
