About John WL Berry

Follow Me

John is a former digital Sherpa who uses sock puppets to create alternative methods of growth in long-term information intelligence. His focus recently has been on free-range, artisan, locally sourced, gluten-free, and disruptive information supply chains. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Just kidding. He is a grief counselor, a former hospital chaplain, a pretend farmer who uses real dirt, an award-winning writer (OK, it was a gold star in the 5th grade but it was still an award), and the guy who always talks to you when you are standing in the checkout line. Raised in Boston (Roxbury) he has lived in Maine for 23 years. John spent over 40 years participating in, observing, questioning, and avoiding American politics while learning to follow Jesus.
