Growing up, Jon learned the importance of hard work and family values from his mother, who worked as a registered nurse, and his father, who was a business owner. Jon graduated from high school in Taos, and then went on to complete his education at New Mexico State University where he received a BS in Electrical Engineering.

​

In 1998, Jon moved to Rio Rancho and has lived here ever since. From the moment he got here, Jon has involved himself in our community. He was a volunteer for Civitan National for several years, where we helped the organization fundraise, provided civic assistance for handicapped individuals, and provide aid in veteran projects.

 

In recent years, Jon has volunteered and worked tirelessly to help conservative candidates get elected in Sandoval County. Jon has helped more than a handful of candidates through door knocking, organizing events, and sharing our conservative message—the message that any person is entitled to freedom, prosperity, and the pursuit of happiness. Jon recently completed his two-year term as treasurer for the Sandoval County Republican Party.
