His interest in astronomy and weather took him to San Jose State University where he graduated with a B.S. degree in Meteorology. John feels fortunate to have worked alongside his peers during his years calibrating meteorological equipment atop the Mount Sutro Tower in San Francisco. Later he worked for ASARCO Copper Mining in Arizona as an environmental meteorologist. He also served as weather forecaster for the offshore Oil & Gas industry adjacent Houston, TX as well as for the National Weather Service in Montana.view less
