J.D. Whitlock, Founder

J.D. has been an IT professional for over 20 years, and is retired from the Air Force where he worked in healthcare IT management roles. He wrote a mobile app before it was cool back in 2003, and dabbled with web development in the early days of WordPress. His day job is Chief Information Officer at Dayton Children’s.
