Jonathan was born in South Africa in 1985, emigrated to Australia in 2010, and earned his Australian Citizenship in 2022. Excellence and high achievement have been hallmarks of his personality in his continuous quest to improve his quality of life. He earned a highly valued degree in Law in Australia and South Africa, however, his current debilitating mental health condition prevents him from practicing professionally. Despite his achievements, Jonathan walked a very rugged, and sometimes merciless, path through his young life. Suffering trauma through severe, life changing burns, at the age of 20 months, parental divorce in his formative years, and a home invasion before his teenage years. In his later teens, he was caught up in a deportation experience from the USA, and by his early twenties, his mental health was beginning to impact his dreams of success through University. With his mental health taking its toll, Jonathan's life took a dark turn away from further studies, towards self-medication. But, despite his worsening condition and ongoing struggles, Jonathan pushed on to find his own normal life, however different it may have been from the life he'd hoped for himself. Emanating from his mental health conditions and ongoing struggles, are the admirable qualities of empathy and benevolence. And, his understanding and appreciation of the human condition has deepened over the years. This grasp of another human being's woes has driven him to put pen to paper and share his story so that others can learn just how powerful it is finding and living their normal life. Jonathan is determined to help others help themselves, and share that sometimes life isn't what we'd planned ... but it can be so much more than we'd dreamed.
