Leon Jones III

Hi! I’m Leon Jones III, a storyteller and journalist drawn to the bright spots that give us a reason to be excited for the future. My career so far has been across politics and journalism, where I have focused on people solving problems at a state and local level.

After round one of grad school and work, I earned the opportunity to be a Schwarzman Scholar and spend a year in Beijing, China. In China, I got a firsthand look at how people use technology to solve problems we all face. Seeing this gave me a new perspective on how solutions are created and inspired a new set of stories I hope to tell.

Now, I explore technology, innovation, and the people behind them. I want to understand how new technologies develop and how they can solve problems seen and unseen. I welcome you to come on this journey with me.
