John Clamp, CPA and currently the CFO for Alamo Area Council of Governments, joined us for this week’s episode of Life In Accounting: The Where Accountants Go podcast.The logical career choice…John’s career has been extremely unique, having taken several ‘less-traditional’ paths… real estate, two terms on the city council, and even sales of aviation fuel!  However, it all started with a very logical career choice. Right at the beginning of the podcast John explains that his decision to pursue accounting was a very simple decision – he had a family and needed a secure living. Accounting was a smart choice.Opportunities in real estateJohn’s experience in real estate started with the fortuitous chance to work with Robert Callaway, a local real estate developer. Shortly afterwards he was able to get onboard as a real estate accountant at the largest private employer in San Antonio – USAA. After 13 years at USAA, he decided it was time to go out on his own and build a brokerage.City Council &amp; politicsWe spend a substantial amount of the interview discussing John’s service to the community as a city councilman for 4 years. He talks about his experience “block walking” in order to get out the vote, as well as a discussion of his run for County Tax Assessor Collector, a campaign that unfortunately wasn’t successful at the time. If you’ve ever considered getting into politics this episode will be very valuable. John is very transparent about his experience with both serving in that capacity as well as what it took to get there.…And this doesn’t even start to touch on the details of his current role of CFO with AACOG, getting his MBA from UTSA, or his previous experience as Executive Director of the Hotel &amp; Lodging Association. You’ll have to listen to the audio for those details. Stay tuned for our episode next week with another everyday hero from the accounting community.
