About Me
John Angus was born in Utah. His parents, Jack and Joyce, were the best parent/grandparent combination a kid could have (he was born when they were in their forties.) They moved around a lot between Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, and Utah. He even lived in Yellowstone National Park for a time. He became an Eagle Scout. He's not sure if it was his parents age, living in small towns, or being a boy scout, but memories of his upbringing seem like a Norman Rockwell painting.
Once he graduated from high-school he joined the National Guard. He spent time with the 19th Special Forces Group and the 222nd Field Artillery Battalion. Around the time he finished his service with the National Guard, he graduated from Dixie State College in St. George, Utah. He found work as a trainer at Steton Technology Group. Later on, he became an Account Manager working with customers all over the United States, China, Mexico, and the Netherlands. Currently, he works at the State of Utah as a project manager. He is also attending Westminster College in Salt Lake City and hope to have my MBA by 2012.
People call him a lot of things. He generally goes by his nickname: Jangus.
