JC Newhouse

A native of Central California who has lived in five states and eight countries, JC Newhouse’s career has spanned the roles of dishwasher, freight broker, claims adjuster, construction contractor, college administrator, American diplomat, and more.

For the past thirty years, he’s been living and working among the diversity of cultures of the former Soviet Union, holding assignments in Ukraine, Russia, Uzbekistan, and the Republic of Georgia, as well as Iraq and Kosovo.
