Sean Jones, president of the Jazz Education Network (JEN), is also the Chair of Jazz Studies at Johns Hopkins University.
Among other things, he held down the lead trumpet chair at the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra and toured with Marcus Miller, Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter on trumpet for the Tribute to Miles Tour.
