Baker is the son of longtime Alpin Haus employee Dave Baker, sales manager at the Alpin Haus RV store in Amsterdam. As a teenager, the younger Baker worked under his father as a lot attendant before leaving for SUNY Buffalo, where he graduated with a degree in business administration in 2006.
Baker returned to Alpin Haus, first as a salesperson, then the business manager at the Saratoga Springs RV store prior to his most recent promotion. He replaces Bob Brundige, who retired in March after a 40-year career at Alpin Haus.
"Jonathan has been part of the Alpin Haus family for most of his life," said Andy Heck, president of Alpin Haus. "His dedication and passion are as evident today as they were 15 years ago when he began washing and moving RVs at our Amsterdam store. We’re excited to have Jonathan at the helm of our Saratoga Springs location.
Baker is an avid golfer and ardent sports fan. He lives in Clifton Park.
