Jonathan Sehloff ’19

Jonathan Sehloff graduated in 2019 from Bethany Lutheran College with a degree in Computer Science. He developed technical skills through his involvement with Bethany’s live broadcasting studio, hands-on training that fueled the trajectory of his professional life.

Today, he designs comprehensive broadcast systems for Alpha in Eden Prairie, Minnesota. His work covers a broad scope: video production switchers, routing systems, graphics and video playback, slow-motion replay functionality, camera systems, and more. Reflecting on his role, he shares, “From the inception of system ideas to the final execution and delivery, I am involved with clients throughout the processes. This includes drawing reviews, commissioning, and successful first use of a system.”

Jonathan credits his Bethany experience—and playing varsity soccer—for shaping his adaptability and critical thinking:

“Bethany gave me an edge on overall preparedness with classes teaching critical thinking and knowledge, while participating in Bethany’s live broadcasting program and playing soccer gave me opportunities that helped me to further my technical and adaptive skills.”

He speaks candidly about what prepares a student for a fulfilling career:

“My advice is to get involved and absorb all you can, never stop learning. The more you put in, the more you get out.”

Jonathan’s journey—from classroom learning and extracurricular engagement at Bethany to success in broadcast systems engineering—demonstrates how a carefully mentored, faith-informed liberal arts education equips graduates to innovate, lead, and build lasting impact.
