CHARLOTTE, N.C., Aug. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Kevin Graham Ford, Chief Catalyst of Leighton Ford Ministries is pleased to announce that Dr. John E. Walker, Ph.D. has joined the Strategic Advisory Board.
Dr. Walker has been an economics professor and a highly successful entrepreneur. As the founder of Andesa Services, he is a pioneer of the information economy, whose business vision was a direct outgrowth of his economics training.

“John Walker is a humble and values-driven leader,” said Kevin Graham Ford. “He has always placed others before himself in service of the mission. We are grateful that he will bring his wisdom and values to LFM’s Strategic Advisory Board.”
Dr. Walker was also a primary donor in developing The John E. Walker Golf Course at Clemson University.
