John Hajduk III
I’ve called Louisa home for nearly my entire life and graduated from Louisa County High School with the Class of 2006. Growing up, I had a goal of playing baseball for James Madison University, but life choices took me in a different direction. Through faith, hard work, and the love of my amazing wife and three children, I’ve built a life that I’m now proud of.
Today, I am an award-winning journalist and stay busy covering local news and working in the electrical trade. When I’m not on the job, some of my hobbies include hunting & fishing, collecting sports cards, and just being a boring dad.
