John Fontaine
Realtor
Hey there! My name is John and I am originally from the Minnesota / Wisconsin area. I moved out here to Coeur d'Alene, Idaho in 2020 with my wife Michelle and our two German shepards, Athena and Estella.
Prior to starting my career in real estate, I was in law-enforcement for six years. I worked here in North idaho for two years, and was a deputy sheriff in Wisconsin for four years. Before law-enforcement, I attended the University of Wisconsin Superior and obtained a degree in legal studies. Before college, I was in the army. I enlisted into the army as an infantryman when I was 17 years old and when I was 19 years old, I spent some time in Afghanistan conducting combat operations.
I have dedicated over a decade of my life to United States government, and I am happier than ever to be out and away from that type of work.
I love the outdoors and coffee! I spend most of my free time either hiking, flyfishing, hunting, camping, playing hockey, skiing or exploring this beautiful world with my wife and two dogs.
Thanks for reading 🙂
