Bio Jonathan Chapon

Jonathan is a very humble guy with an impressive track record as an international health insurance broker. After coming to China as an exchange student in 2007, he returned in 2009 and have been climbing the corporate ladder at Abacare ever since. As he says basically the only thing he did not do is cleaning the carpet. It is quite rare to find an expat working at a company for 12 years with full passion and dedication.
