I help others maximize their potential.

I can probably do that…

My name is John Hendron and this website covers my professional experience plus writing on education and technology, and examples of my graphic design, web design, and video production.

My professional experience has focused in areas diverse as professional learning, organizational development, strategic planning, marketing and nonprofit public relations, and instructional design and delivery for both school-age children and adults. In my work I have championed values-based leadership and have taken great pride in helping others maximize their potential.

I currently working for Educators Rising as Principal Story Architect, leading communications and marketing. We help schools and their communities with a Grow Your Own solution, while offering students insights into their potential as future educators.

My current research interests focus on the impact gamification can play in advancing professional learning.

Opinions shared on this site are my own.

John leads a Future Business Leaders of America meeting at Avon Lake High School’s typing lab in 1991, serving as president of our chapter. I was presumably keeping track of what I needed to say on my fingers.

I attended Avon Lake High School—Ohio, the University of Rochester—New York, Case Western Reserve University—Cleveland, Ohio, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University—Blacksburg, Virginia, and Virginia Commonwealth University—Richmond, Virginia.

Outside of work I enjoy travel, fiction writing, early music listening, and curating what to eat from my cookbook collection. I live in Richmond, Virginia.
