Jonathan graduated from CCRI with an Associates Degree in Business, and he was currently attending College Unbound where he was pursuing his Bachelors Degree in Business expecting to graduate in 2023.

Jonathan worked at Lowe’s and then as a line cook at Bone Fish, where his passion for cooking was enhanced after working with his mother in the kitchen for many years. His dream was to start a business as a chef with his own food truck with the “Katie’s Classic Soul Food” named after his grandmother Katie Holloway. He wanted to dedicate a couple of days a week to feed those in need. At Thanksgiving, Jonathan came up with the idea to cook turkeys and make sandwiches to pass out along with fruit and water. He and his mom would travel around the city and pass out sandwich bags to whomever was in need.

Family ties were very important to Jonathan. He was a Loving and Caring young man who would give the shirt of his back. One of his favorite moto was “Today is a good day:.
