Hi, I'm Johnny, but close friends and family call me Red. After 30 years in Information Technology, I have retired and started a not-for-profit organization called "Altgeld WhizKids Initiative, inc." with the mission to train a half million kids to be better students by using computers and educational software.

My target audience is pre-K to 6th grade kids with specialized programs for high school kids. With a bachelor's degree in computer science from Northern Illinois University, Microsoft system engineer certification, and an AWS cloud practitioner certification, I've spent many years working for companies such as Microsoft, IBM, Deloitte, Kohl's, and Johnson Controls, just to name a few.

It is my goal to bridge the digital divide by bringing young minds into the 21st century, especially in underserved, underdeveloped communities. I pray that you will support me in this endeavor and pray for me as I embark on this amazing journey to serve kids!
