About Us

We are a diverse team that brings a critical mix of expertise in higher education, K-12, talent development, policy and entrepreneurship. We are connected in our belief that designing models from the learner perspective can address equity and skills gaps in an incredibly dynamic world of work.

 

 

 

Our Team

Our Team, Board, and Advisors bring cutting edge expertise across disciplines such as technology, pedagogy, student voice, edtech and design. The common thread is a belief that we are at a critical historical moment in redesigning the school-to-work pipeline. And that we can vastly improve access and outcomes.

 

 

 

Our Board

Our Board is made up of visionaries with proven track records in innovation, social impact, launching new models, often for serving historically under-represented groups. The Lab relies on their expertise to guide and grow our work.
