Meet your broker
Hi, I’m Jonathan Leibert.
My path to this work started at home. As the father of two inspirational children, I came to understand OPWDD’s Self-Direction model not from the outside, but as a parent navigating it — and that experience is what led me here.
Before becoming a Support Broker, I spent my career in finance as an equity trader. I hold a Master’s in Accounting from St. John’s University and am a graduate of Binghamton University. That background matters: building and managing a Self-Direction Budget is real financial work, and it’s work I know how to do well and explain clearly.
Whether you’re just exploring Self-Direction or you already know you want Budget and Employer Authority, I’ll meet you where you are and walk the process with you — from that first conversation through managing your budget over time.
Let’s build your circle together.
