Hadley Speaker's Bureau
Johnjoe Farragher, President and CEO
Johnjoe Farragher spent the majority of his career in the educational technology sector, founding two successful services for the K-12 arena that led to significant benefits for teachers and their students.
Johnjoe has a growth mindset; inspired by the idea that Hadley's help should reach many more people tomorrow than it does today. He understands that transformative growth stems from a deep commitment to serving the needs and exceeding the expectations of a well defined audience. In Hadley's case, this is older adults adjusting to vision loss.
A native of Evanston, IL, he’s a graduate of both Marquette University and Loyola University.
