“THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A BOOK OF TWO HUNDRED PAGES FROM THE VERY BEGINNING, AND A BOOK OF TWO HUNDRED PAGES, WHICH IS THE RESULT OF AN ORIGINAL EIGHT HUNDRED PAGES. THE SIX HUNDRED ARE THERE. ONLY YOU DON’T SEE THEM.”

About Us
WickEd Learning is not just a company; it's a culmination of passion, expertise, and a lifelong journey in education and creativity, led by its founder and driving force, Dr. John Wick, Ed.D. With a robust background in educational leadership, specializing in teaching and learning, Dr. Wick has shaped his career around elevating and transforming educational experiences. His journey, marked by three years as the Director of Education for a pioneering neuro-edtech company, has been fueled by over 16 years in the education sector, with more than a dozen of those in administrative roles, including serving as a Catholic School principal.
As a recognized Google Innovator and Champion, Dr. Wick's influence extends beyond the classroom. He is a regular presenter at national and international education conferences, sharing his insights and innovations in educational theory and its practical applications. His expertise is not just limited to the conventional; his love for science fiction and the supernatural adds a unique flavor to his work, making WickEd Learning a hub for creative and forward-thinking educational solutions.
But the roots of Dr. Wick's passion for writing and storytelling go deeper. It all began in 4th grade when he won a young writers competition with a story about dinosaur bones coming to life at the La Brea Tar Pits on April Fools' Day. This early achievement sowed the seeds for a lifelong love for writing. In high school, a meeting with the legendary Ray Bradbury further ignited his passion for storytelling. College years brought the fortune of interacting with Sir Ken Robinson, adding another layer of inspiration to his journey.
WickEd Learning is Dr. Wick's platform to amplify the voices of authors eager to share their ideas and stories. It’s a place where educational theory meets narrative creativity, where new authors find their voice, and seasoned writers find new dimensions to their craft. It’s a testament to a career dedicated to not only teaching and administration but also to the deeper love of reading, writing, and storytelling. At WickEd Learning, every project is an opportunity to weave together education and imagination, to create content that enlightens, engages, and inspires.
