W. James Hindman – CEO
The visionary and serial entrepreneur behind Jiffy Lube International, W.J. Hindman began his professional career in hospital administration. Parlaying his success in the healthcare industry, Hindman built a mini-empire of nursing homes throughout the US. From there the Jiffy Lube story follows along with numerous other ventures along the way.
Today, Hindman continues his life-long mission of finding a need and filling it—this time in the area of age-related macular degeneration. Diagnosed at 57 and eventually declared legally blind, Hindman found a way out of the darkness thanks to the implantable miniature telescope. With his renewed sight Hindman has a renewed passion for life and for helping others who suffer from this devastating disease.
