At KaiPod Learning, our mission is to ensure every child has access to a high-quality and highly-personalized learning experience. There is a significant gap between how bricks-and-mortar schools — public or private — deliver education and what individual families and students need.

We believe one of the best ways to meet students’ and families’ needs is to blend online learning and in-person supports in a way that personalizes learning and helps students build deep and lasting relationships. To that end, we operate a network of in-person learning centers that provide a community to students and support for their parents. We also invite learning centers across the country to join our network and get access to our online school partners and other services in order to grow or manage their own centers.

Our goal is to build a new community-based model of learning that’s available to every child in America.

Talent is everywhere; opportunity is not. Education helps change this imbalance, and my life’s work is to accelerate that change.

I’m an education entrepreneur with deep experience in online learning and education technology. I bring blue sky strategies to life, launch new products, and help organizations capture new growth opportunities beyond their comfort zone. When making decisions, I trust my gut instinct, but always verify with data.

As a leader, I equip my teams with the tools to do the best work of their lives. I’m drawn to people that are hungry for feedback, always striving for improvement, and consider themselves to be in a state of ‘permanent beta.’

Right now, I am building an online learning startup that deeply personalizes learning, while making it more engaging, social, and affordable. Never have I been more excited to jump out of bed to get to work.
