In 1994, John relocated to Augusta, Ga. where he served as head of school and CFO at the Westminster Schools. Three headships followed in Alabama, Georgia and Texas, providing experience in both independent and faith-based schools. In the area of advancement, John has worked closely with school staff, foundation and advancement consulting firms to raise gift support for the schools he headed. He has a comprehensive understanding of advancement and best practices.

John taught at Kennesaw State University in Georgia as associate professor of educational leadership, directing a master’s program for independent school educators. His courses include Financial Management of Nonprofits, Educational Leadership and Practice, Educational Law, and Institutional Advancement in Independent Schools.

John earned a B.A. in English Literature from Wheaton College and an M.T.S. in Church History magna cum laude from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. Harvard University awarded his Ed.M. and Ed.D. in Administration, Policy and Social Planning.
