Additionally, Jones served as lead executive for the company's Board of Directors Environmental, Partner, and Community Impact Committee, was an executive sponsor of the Armed Forces Partner Network, and was a governing member of the Global Brand Council.

    "Monumental is one of the most valuable and forward-thinking sports and media-entertainment organizations in the world," said Jones. "Ted and Zach Leonsis have built a company that is unrivaled in its ability to deliver best-in-class service to fans. This has been driven by dynamic management, strong cultural values, and an unwavering commitment to the community. As someone who has lived and thrived in the DC metropolitan area and has insatiable appetite for sports and media-entertainment, I'm thrilled to contribute to this exceptional organization."

    "The future of major league sports and media is increasingly global, with success driven by delivering highly personalized, premium services for consumers," said Zach Leonsis, President of Media & New Enterprises for MSE. "AJ's track record of working in senior communications roles with international brands that prioritize outstanding customer engagement makes him a perfect fit to contribute to our next phase of growth."
