Among his many broadcasting achievements, John holds the distinction of being the first reporter over the scene of the fallen Bay Bridge and Cypress Structure following 1989’s Loma Prieta earthquake, as well as numerous breaking news events while flying around the region covering traffic.
John has worked as a play-by-play announcer for minor league baseball and for San Jose State University as well as stints as a public address announcer for San Jose State University, the University of California Berkeley, and the NCAA.
John was raised on the Peninsula, and recently made a move to the Coast, setting up residence in Half Moon Bay. In his free time, he enjoys exploring the coast from California to Washington, along with trips to the Wine Country.
