After graduation, Jon entered the professional world at Electronic Data Systems and later began his finance career at Freddie Mac. He has held executive positions at top Wall Street firms including, HSBC Securities, Goldman Sachs, and Lehman Brothers.

Jon is currently a Managing Director and Senior Officer at RBC Capital Markets in the Bahamas, and Chairman of RBC Financial Caribbean. He joined the investment bank in 2007, where he is now responsible for the performance and liquidity of a multibillion-dollar US and Canadian investment portfolio.

Even through all of his professional advancements, Jon looks back fondly at CMU, where he lettered in gymnastics and met his wife, Terri, 1985 graduate of CMU's College of Education.

Jon and Terri have generously contributed more than $1 million in gifts to CMU. Their contributions have funded the Voigtman Financial Lab, the Voigtman ERP Lab, the Voigtman Endowed Scholarship, the Michigan Finance Scholars in the College of Business Administration, as well as countless projects in athletics, and the College of Education and Human Services.
