About me

Experience in the classroom.
Experience creating.

I’m Henry V. Lyons, Jr., founder and CEO of Lyons Gold Standard Multimedia LLC. My work combines special education, computer information systems, writing, and multimedia production.

My background includes more than 25 years with the New York City Department of Education, including work as a special education science teacher in District 79 and as a computer coordinator. That experience shapes how I design learning materials and technology for real classrooms.

Through LGM, HVLYONS Graphic Design Studios, and IMOA Entertainment, I work on websites, graphics, video, publishing, and community-focused projects.

My approach is practical: make information clear, make technology useful, and give people opportunities to learn and create.
