Jon's Story
Hello Class of '86.
Left MHS with a clue as to what i wanted to do for work but unfortunately counselors were not familiar with the discipline!
Attended Delta for 2 yrs gaining credits and finding more about my intended major. Got my AA.
Shifted to San Jose State (it was close, I could afford it, and it offered mostly what i wanted). Majored in Industrial Design with a focus on Automotive Design. Got my BS.
Won an internship with General Motors in '91. I was assigned to Advanced Vehicle Design which focuses on vehicle design (models 10+ years into the future). Had issues with what i saw there. Looking back at GM's current situation you can see what i mean. Returned to California to shift my focus!
Promised GM i would return to do some teaching at SJSU prior to graduating. Did a little teaching in University before graduating ...Expand for more
then returned home to refocus. While focusing, I started work for a local food producer which is privately owned. CNP.com
Company branched out into warehouse automation. PAS-US.com was born. I oversee a whole slew of areas in both halves of the company. DB admin, Sales, Product Manager, 3D visualization, trainer, documentation, etc.... Job keeps me busy (the way i like it) and allows me to travel here and there.
Funny thing is that as a product manager I now do work similar to what i got a degree in even though i had not intended it. Who would have guessed!
I don't stay in touch with most of my friends. I am very sorry about that but it is nothing personal. I have always been that way. I still love you all the same. Made alot of good friends over the years. Never made enemies, never will.
Not married. Haven't met Ms.Right.
