Professionally, John is passionate about brand marketing and P&L management and has spent most of his career leading brand growth in the consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry.

Personally, John and his wife, Amber, live in Minnesota and have philanthropic goals to ease local hunger and advance education for more people. These goals have led to engagement in leadership positions at church, food banks, and with BYU Alumni.

With a wife, five kids, and a dog, John’s main hobbies revolve around supporting family activities and staying fit enough to keep up with everyone else. John has completed 10 Tough Mudder physical challenge courses across the US. He also enjoys the outdoors and recently led a group of teenagers on a multi-day backpacking trip to Isle Royale National Park and came back with every one of them.
