John is passionate about developing. Whether it’s advancing creative software solutions, the human potential of students in Cleveland's urban schools, or the business capacities of a growing manufacturing company. John is driven by creativity. The creative front is the new frontier in business, science, arts, education -- the new front everywhere. Subjects tested to measure creativity in long-term studies confirm that creativity is a better predictor of success than intelligence (Torrance, 1980).John is currently working at Parlow Software to creatively transform an old codebase for measuring “performance-based assessment (re-assessment) of learning outcomes” into a modern web application. John draws on his experience in education, business development and his training at Tech Elevator’s bootcamp for .NET development.
