About Us
Dr. Rohn Kessler, Ed.D
Founder and CEO. Dr. Kessler began Sparks of Genius in 2001 to help ADHD children optimize brain potential and academic success, incorporating his experience in psychology, pediatrics and education. He was searching for natural solutions to ADHD which were safe, effective and science based. Before starting the company, Dr. Kessler worked at the University of Oregon and Florida Atlantic University.
Always on the cutting edge, he combines neuroscience with computer technology to help children and adults optimize brain function and maximize performance. He began working with ADHD children in the 1970’s with his mentor, pediatrician William Grant Crook. The 5 Safe Roads Training for the ADHD Child is inspired by the work of brain scientists Michael I. Posner and Evian Gordon.
