About Teresa
Originally from the Midwest of the United States, I began my career working across the US for global education companies in roles spanning strategy, operations, and product management.
I moved to the UK in 2015 to lead a >50-country portfolio for Kaplan, a worldwide leader in training with >$1bn annual revenue. I then transitioned to working with SMEs across the UK and spanning all segments of the education industry – from edtech software, to apprenticeship training, to school suppliers – applying my expertise to drive top- and bottom-line growth.
