BETTER SYSTEMS GROUP - Key Persons
Jon began programming in 1972 at The University of Western Ontario, where he graduated in Honours Economics with several computer science courses. While there Jon displayed great aptitude as a programmer for a research project designing General Equilibrium computer models of the Canadian and World Economies. As a result, he was invited to continue developing these models at The Australian National University, at The University of Sydney, and at The University of New South Wales, Australia. Jon then founded Better Systems, creating the much-loved software used by hundreds of clinics across North America and beyond. Unfortunately, a decade after passing the torch to Tom, Jon passed away in November of 2020.
Tom studied in the renowned Computer Science program at the University of Waterloo, ultimately graduating in Honours History with a Computer Science minor. Tom achieved considerable real-world experience both in the University's co-op program and in the years after his graduation, and has worked at a number of technology-oriented companies in areas including software development, systems design and technical support. Tom has since brought his skills and experience to bear, driving the next phase of growth at Better Systems.
