Lindy Hockenbary—aka “LindyHoc”—is the bridge between education and technology. With experience in instructional technology, professional development, and curriculum design, she helps educators make sense of emerging technologies—especially artificial intelligence—and turn them into practical, classroom-ready learning experiences.

Her journey began in a technology-equipped classroom, where she first blended instruction with innovation. Since then, she has led more than 1,300 hands-on trainings for over 30,000 educators, authored A Teacher’s Guide to Online Learning, and supported schools around the world as they navigate digital learning, AI literacy, and instructional change. In recognition of her leadership, she was named a 2025 Leading Woman in AI honoree by ASU+GSV.

Lindy’s work is grounded in helping kids, which fuels her passion for making technology literacy accessible and meaningful for every classroom. Her motto is “Make EdTech 100,” and her mission is to empower educators with the confidence and clarity to navigate the evolving intersection of technology and pedagogy.
