With a BS in accounting and statistics from the University of Oregon, John Jones first embarked on a career in accounting and realized it wasn’t his calling. Jones held positions in the computer industry and has an extensive professional history in the tech space as well as in financial analysis. Jones visited almost every major city in the world over a 12-year period and learned the value of people skills. Jones’ professional background analyzing different types of companies in hardware, software, service and printing gave him a keen eye for what made them tick and how they did or did not make money. His background positions him as someone with the experience and professionalism to responsibly and effectively lead. Jones is active in the Truckee Tahoe community, making donations and volunteering his time toward the greater good in the environmental arena as well as for family programming in the community. Jones is a skier, he likes to hunt pheasant, chucker, duck, deer and elk, and enjoys spending time with his friends and family. Jones prefers the small town community versus the hustle and bustle of the Bay Area and says that his community of Lahontan is filled with good people.
