Jim's Story
Life
44 years in the printing industry and I
still have my eye for color.
Always looking at tourists to see if any
of you fellow classmates are visiting So.Cal.
KEEP IN TOUCH!!!!!!
School
Looking back I now have 20/20 hindsight. I realized that if only I'd applied myself more I could have gone to great heights. I am able to "think on my feet" and have a good command of "common sense", now. It is really too bad to look back and see what being too self centered does to a future and long time relationships. I had some really great friends throughout my schooling from Sheridan School through LSE. It is too bad they probably never knew how much I valued knowing them and how highly I regarded them, and still do.
Let my experience be a lesson to all; "Never burn your bridges as you stumble through life!"
College

hat really "did it" for me. Met some interesting people and learned valuable information along the way.
Workplace
In 1965 the US Air Force saw something in my aptitude tests that made them assign me to a Printing Squadron. From that beginning I have spent most of my career trying to learn the best ways to produce great printed material with excellent color reproduction. I have worked production as a 4-color stripper, copy camera, color scanner operator, and finally a production manager. I have taught color management and computer programs to the printing and photographic industries. I was the North American Dealer Representative and Customer Relations person for a new prepress color proofing software called Absolute-Proof. I am now retired and my Wife and I own a Nail Salon in Las Vegas, NV
Military
The time in my life that I considered my largest "waste of time" yet, the time I learned the most about myself.
Future
Enjoying retirement and Business Ownership. Always wishing to welcome good friends who visit us.
