Jason Wayne Isamu Clock was born to Marianne and Garry Clock on May 15, 1978 at 4:04 PM EST. For the first 22 years of my life I lived in Phelps, a little village between Rochester and Syracuse in Upstate NY. I have a younger brother Jared who also has 2 5 letter middle names. :) I have my fathers' middle name and a Japanese name picked by my mother which means "healer." My mothers' mother is Japanese and met my grandfather in Hawaii during WWII. I met my life partner Patrick Richardson in April 2002.

From 2001 - 2006 I lived in Rochester, NY. I owned a house, one of my goals in life, in the town of West Irondequoit in northern Rochester from July 2003 - December 2007 (Thanks Bush for the bad housing market.).

September 12, 2006 I moved down to Washington, D.C. and started working at Georgetown University the following day.

Education

May 14, 2000 I graduated from Allegheny College in Meadville, PA with a BS in Computer Science.

Work

Since September 13, 2006 I have been working at Georgetown University, as the University Information Services Student Help Desk Coordinator. GO HOYAS!

In November 2007 I picked up a part time job in order to assist with the cost of living in the Nation's Capital. I am currently a supervisor at Cost Plus World Market close to Chevy Chase, MD.

From July 2000 - September 2006 I worked for Hillside Family of Agencies, a not for profit children's service agency, as a Computer Support Specialist. I was promoted with management responsibilities in 2004.

Business Ventures

From December 2004 - January 2007 Patrick and I owned "Patrik's Culinary Kreations," an eclectic neighborhood bakeshop and eatery in Rochesters' South Wedge. During those 2 years we were reviewed by the "City" newspaper and the "Democrat and Chronicle."

February 2008 marked the soft launch of "Simply Sweet Kreations." We are in the process of securing a commercial kitchen and delivery services at which time we will begin advertising.

Volunteering

Since March 2007, I have been volunteering at both the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum and the Smithsonian's Zoological Park. At the Air and Space Museum I assist visitors at the Welcome Center and also educate visitors on Living and Working in Space at a Discovery Station. I currently volunteer at the Zoo as a tour guide.

I have been working on a long term goal of mine....to talk to 1,000,000 people while volunteering. As of March 2008, I am at 40,000! My progress will be posted in my blog.
