Following high school, John attended the University of Hartford and then attended Elizabeth Seton College, Yonkers, N.Y. before he enlisted in the U. S. Army on Dec. 15, 1987 and served as a medic until his honorable discharge on May 27, 1991. He was called to serve in Desert Storm, but the war was over before he flew out.

He was very active in the AYSO soccer program where he volunteered as the Regional Commissioner for four years. He was able to enjoy watching the kiddos play and never missed a game when he wasn’t traveling for business.
