About John

I am currently a manager with the AT&T SE Region Construction & Engineering team and have been in C&E for 5 years building in-building Distributed Antenna Systems. For the previous 21 years I was an engineer/manager on the wireless communication side, and have held about every imaginable position from installer to Manager of RF Engineering for a two state area. I have a BS in Electrical Engineering Technology from Old Dominion University and I am a Senior Member of the IEEE. I am an 8 year veteran, serving from 1983-1991 in both the US Navy (2 yrs - ET) and the Army National Guard (6 yrs-11B/88M). My wife also served and my son is currently serving.
