VP Sales | 🚀 Propelling SaaS Companies to New Growth | Lifelong Sales Mentor and Teacher

Education is locked in outdated models while technology races ahead. So I bridge the gap and build the frameworks that define the future of learning.

I’ve spent my career moving between classrooms, boardrooms, and uncomfortable conversations about what actually works in education.

I started as a teacher.
Then, I moved into EdTech sales—helping founders, school leaders, and teams scale products, revenue, and strategy in one of the hardest markets there is.

Along the way, I noticed a pattern most of us avoid naming:

Education doesn’t fail because of a lack of tools.
It fails when motivation disappears—and we keep building systems that ignore that.

We’ve tried dashboards.
We’ve tried content engines.
We’ve tried accountability without agency.

And we keep acting surprised when students disengage.

My work now sits at the intersection of:
•	Learning science & motivation
•	AI-enabled mastery-based learning
•	Go-to-market strategy for education companies
•	Helping schools raise standards without burning people out

I’m especially interested in models where:
• students love school
• learning is deep, fast, and human
• technology gives time back instead of taking it
• and schools can actually sustain themselves

I advise founders, operators, and education leaders who want outcomes—not applause.

I’m the author of The Great Unlock—a practical, contrarian look at how AI can break education’s three biggest constraints and make learning more human, not less.

No hype.
No grownsplaining.
High standards. High support.

If you believe students are capable of more—and that education should finally be built around that belief—we’ll get along just fine.

This is how some AI-in-education influencers sound to actual teachers.

When they claim “teaching jobs are over” because an AI tutor can generate a worksheet or explain long division.

The bread-machine analogy fits uncomfortably well.

Yes, the machine automates one specific task.
Yes, it can produce a decent loaf with very little effort.

No, it doesn’t replace understanding students, diagnosing misconceptions, building trust, managing a room of 25 wildly different humans, motivating disengaged kids, adapting in real time, or designing learning experiences that actually stick.

That’s what bakers do.
That’s what teachers do.

But when AI handles part of the work, everyone panics:

→ This changes everything!
→ Teachers are obsolete!
→ Schools won’t exist in 2 years!

Meanwhile, teachers are already using these tools daily.

They’re realizing something much less dramatic — and much more interesting:

The mechanical parts of the job are shrinking.
The human parts just became more important.

AI doesn’t replace teachers.
It exposes what teaching was never about in the first place.

I curate the future of learning | Helping EdTech founders and Education Leaders co-design the future of learning

This chart should make every education leader pause.

The strongest predictor of higher adult income isn’t test scores.
It’s character skills.

The graph below (from Adam Grant's Hidden Potential) shows that 4th-grade behaviour ratings are a remarkably strong predictor of adult earnings.
Translation: traits like self-control, perseverance, responsibility, and cooperation compound for decades.

This is where it gets interesting 👇
Those skills are supposed to be taught in kindergarten.

Which is why one of the most powerful (and underappreciated) predictors of long-term student success is a seasoned kindergarten teacher. Not because they teach reading better—but because they teach being human better.

Now enter AI.

I often write about how AI can “give teachers time back.”
Cool. But time back for what?

❌ More test prep
❌ More dashboards
❌ More compliance tasks in disguise

The real unlock is this:

AI should buy teachers time to do the things only humans can do:
• Build character
• Scaffold self-regulation
• Teach conflict, empathy, grit, and follow-through
• Create environments where habits—not just knowledge—are formed

If we use AI to optimize instruction but ignore character, we’ll get faster learning… and the same outcomes.

If we use AI to protect time for character and life skills, we change trajectories.

The future of education isn’t less human.
It’s human skills, finally given the time they deserve.

The question isn’t whether AI gives teachers time back.
It’s whether we’re brave enough to use that time wisely.

Over 80,000 teacher applications.

Let that sink in.

Alpha School received more applications than most entire school districts see in years. Many big districts would be thrilled with a fraction of that.

This isn’t a fluke.
And it’s not a labor market anomaly.

It’s a signal. 🚨

Because here’s the real takeaway:

The teaching profession isn’t dying.
What’s dying is the traditional teaching model.

Teachers aren’t burned out on:
--> kids
--> learning
--> purpose
--> impact

They’re burned out on:
- being asked to do everything except teach
- rigid pacing guides that ignore mastery
- classrooms optimized for compliance, not learning
- systems that confuse time-on-task with outcomes

When a school redesigns the job:
--> clear outcomes
--> everage (yes, including AI)
--> smaller cognitive load
--> real autonomy
--> respect for professional judgment

Teachers don’t leave.

They line up.

80,000 applications isn’t about Alpha specifically.
It’s about pent-up demand from educators who still love teaching...
...but no longer want to sacrifice their sanity to do it.

The narrative that “no one wants to teach anymore” is lazy.

A better one is this:

Teachers want to teach. They just don’t want to teach in a broken system.

Fix the system, and the talent floodgates open.

Funny how that works.

AI SHOW @ ASU+GSV 2025 Attendee

HierSales is about providing a hierarchy in your sales process. Putting systems in place to consistently grow revenue. We put in place scalable and repeatable sales processes to drive revenue growth for companies in the $1-5M stage.

Most companies are still running outdated GTM playbooks.

Big budgets go into ads, MQLs, and funnels that don’t actually build trust or drive outcomes.

That’s where HierSales comes in.

I help founders and revenue leaders invent their own growth playbook instead of borrowing someone else’s. My methodology is simple but powerful:

Identify → Amplify → Multiply

•	Identify the sparks already driving traction — peer influence, referrals, customer wins.

•	Amplify them through customer champions and authentic founder-led storytelling.

•	Multiply by turning those sparks into repeatable, scalable growth motions (councils, referral loops, influence dinners).

With HierSales, I work hands-on with early-stage and scaling companies to:

•	Run growth ethnography that uncovers where influence really flows.

•	Design influence programs that turn customers into your best sellers.

•	Build 12-week experiment roadmaps to test, validate, and double down on what actually works.

•	Codify it all into a playbook that accelerates growth sustainably.

I don’t just consult from the sidelines. I’ve built, scaled, and sold in the trenches — from teaching in classrooms to leading enterprise sales to scaling EdTech ventures. That practitioner’s lens means I can spot the hidden levers most consultants miss.

If your growth engine feels stuck, or if you’re tired of burning budget on campaigns that don’t convert, let’s talk. Together, we’ll write the playbook that finally unlocks your next stage of growth.

Future of Education Podcast

We have 17 versions of an iPhone in 17 years, and we're still using the same version of education we've used for a hundred years.

Think about that for a second.

We upgrade our phones every year because:
• they get faster
• they get smarter
• they adapt to how we use them

But when it comes to kids?

Same time-based system.
Same age-based grades.
Same “move on even if you didn’t get it” logic.

Version 1.0.
Still shipping.

And then we act surprised when students are disengaged, anxious, or bored.

Here’s the uncomfortable part (said gently, I promise):
Education didn’t stagnate because we lack effort or care.
It stagnated because the system was never designed to upgrade.

The factory model worked when:
• information was scarce
• customization was impossible
• scale mattered more than outcomes

None of that is true anymore.

We now live in a world where:
• mastery can be personalized
• feedback can be instant
• pace can adapt to the learner

In every industry except education, that combination would trigger a total redesign.

This isn’t about blaming teachers.
Or dunking on schools.
Or chasing shiny AI objects.

It’s about finally admitting this:

If we wouldn’t accept a 100-year-old phone,
why are we forcing kids to use a 100-year-old learning system?

Education doesn’t need a patch.
It needs a version upgrade.

And the kids are more than ready for v2.0. 🚀

What if school worked like a video game

Kids want to do hard things.

Not busywork things.
Not checked-the-box things.
Hard things — with someone in their corner.

We understand this instinctively in sports.

We sign kids up for hockey, soccer, gymnastics, football, track.
We expect:
• missed shots
• lost games
• bad races
• frustration
• tears

And we’re... fine with it.

Why?

Because we believe something important:
Failure + coaching + repetition = growth.

Now switch to academics.

A bad math test?
Concern.

Struggling to read?
Intervention.

Falling behind?
Lower the bar. Modify the standard. Reduce the expectation.

Same kid.
Same brain.
Totally different rulebook.

Why the double standard?

In sports, we start with high standards and add support.
In school, we often start with comfort and subtract challenge.

But kids don’t rise to comfort.
They rise to standards — when they’re paired with belief and coaching.

The sports playbook works because it’s simple:
• Clear goals
• Immediate feedback
• Permission to fail
• Relentless practice
• A coach who says: “I know you can do this. Let’s try again.”

If we truly want kids to excel academically, we don’t need a new philosophy.

We need the same one we already trust — just applied to learning.

High standards.
Real support.
Try again.

That’s not pressure.
That’s respect.

Being cautious about AI doesn’t make a leader anti-innovation.

It makes them responsible.

The leaders I trust most aren’t asking,
“How fast can we adopt this?”

They’re asking,
“Who might this unintentionally harm?”

Much of this reflection shaped The Great Unlock — not as a playbook, but as a reminder:

Progress without trust isn’t progress at all.

Most schools are still training managers.

Kids who are taught to:
• follow instructions
• optimize within fixed systems
• wait for permission
• “do the work” exactly as assigned

That model worked when value came from compliance.

It breaks in a world where tools can do the compliance faster than any human ever could.

The real skill gap isn’t “AI literacy.”

It’s pattern literacy.

The people who win next don’t just use tools.
They:
• recognize patterns (What’s repeating? What’s breaking?)
• combine patterns (Across subjects, domains, problems)
• create new patterns that produce value

That’s what creators do.

They don’t manage circumstances.
They shape them.

This is the shift education needs to make:

❌ Teaching students to manage tasks
✅ Teaching students to spot leverage

❌ Teaching fixed answers
✅ Teaching how answers are generated

❌ Teaching “follow the system”
✅ Teaching “design the system”

When students learn how patterns work:
• math stops being about procedures
• writing stops being about formats
• science stops being about memorization

Everything becomes transferable.

And transferable skills are the only ones that survive accelerating tools like AI.

What does this all man?

It means fewer worksheets.
Fewer rubrics that pretend to be objective.
More open-ended problems.
More ambiguity.
More creation.

Which is exactly why it works.

Because the future doesn’t reward people who manage the past.

It rewards people who can see what’s forming—and build on it.

The moment I realized AI leadership had nothing to do with technology was when a teacher said:

“I’m not scared of learning new tools. I’m scared of not being needed anymore.”

That’s not a technical concern.
That’s a human one.

Leaders who get AI right will be remembered not for moving fast —

but for protecting the people who make learning possible.

The best way to start with AI in schools is by giving time back to students.

Not by automating instruction.
Not by speeding up curriculum.

But by removing the tasks that quietly pull adults away from relationships.

When AI helps with planning, documentation, or communication, something important happens:

teachers get more time to notice
more time to listen
more time to respond

If AI doesn’t create more space for human connection, it’s not helping learning.

The right starting point isn’t efficiency.

It’s presence.

Where AI belongs in schools is actually very narrow.

It belongs anywhere it quietly gives students more time with adults who know them.

It does not belong:

- between teachers and students
- inside evaluation
- in places where trust is still fragile

Clear placement matters.

When leaders are precise about where AI fits, fear doesn’t have to fill the gaps.

One AI boundary every school system should state clearly:

AI will not replace professional judgment.

Teachers make decisions in context — with students, relationships, and lived experience in mind.

AI can assist.
It can suggest.
It can organize.

But it cannot replace human judgment.

When leaders say this out loud, fear lowers.

Boundaries don’t slow progress.
They make it safe.

There are parts of teaching AI will never replace.

Not because the technology isn’t powerful —
but because the work is human.

Noticing when a student’s behavior changes.
Adjusting in real time when a lesson isn’t landing.
Building trust that makes learning possible.

Any AI strategy that doesn’t explicitly protect these parts of teaching is missing the point.

The goal isn’t smarter systems.
It’s more human classrooms.

I read through 20 district "AI Policy" documents over the holidays.

Most of them are identical. They focus entirely on detection. They assume:

If we block ChatGPT, students will write.
If we use AI detectors, we preserve integrity.

But when I spoke to the teachers in those districts this month, I heard a different story. The detectors are flagging their best writers (false positives). The blocks are pushing kids to use AI on their phones, off the network, where no one can guide them.

We are trying to solve a motivation problem with a firewall solution. Students don't cheat because technology exists. They cheat because they don't see the value in the struggle of writing.

We are spending millions on "AI Guardrails." We should be spending that on "AI Agency." Teaching students why their voice matters more than the algorithm's output.

If your product is designed to catch students, you're fighting a losing war.
If your product is designed to make students want to think, you win.

No login. No rostering. No privacy issues.

If I pitched you a new EdTech platform today, your CTO would immediately ask:
"Does it integrate with Clever?"
"Is it COPPA compliant?"
"Where is the data hosted?"
"How long will the implementation take?"

We have let the "Business of School" strangle the "Business of Learning."

The Myth: Educational software requires complex identity management and strict 1:1 device ratios to function.

The Reality: The OneTab proves you can strip away the entire administrative layer and get better results.

Because the device relies on real-time adaptive assessment rather than stored user profiles, it creates a massive operational unlock:

Zero Setup: You don't spend September uploading CSV files of student rosters. You open the box and hand it to a child.

No Data Liability: It doesn't know the student's name, age, or address. There is nothing to steal. The PII risk is zero.

True Scalability: You don't need a device for every child. You can have a class of 30 share 10 tablets. The software adapts instantly to whoever is holding it.

We are currently paralyzing our schools with "Implementation Fatigue." Teachers spend more time managing logins than managing literacy.

While North American districts are drowning in dashboard management, this solution is delivering high-dosage tutoring without a single password reset ticket.

Sometimes, the most "advanced" technology is the one that knows when to get out of the way.

onebillion.org

one app that delivers reading, writing and numeracy

AI isn’t cheating.
It’s a superpower.

For most of school history, learning has had a hidden bottleneck: waiting.

Waiting for the teacher to get to you.
Waiting days (or weeks) for an assignment to be graded.
Waiting for the next explanation, the next note, the next permission slip to move on.

And if you got stuck?
You stayed stuck. Politely. Quietly. Until help arrived.

AI breaks that model.

With AI:

You don’t wait to get unstuck — you ask.

You don’t wait for feedback — you iterate.

You don’t wait for permission — you proceed.

Go fast.
Go slow.
Go sideways if that’s what understanding requires.

That’s the real shift: agency.

AI gives students control over:

when they practice

how they get feedback

how many reps they need

how deep they want to go

Not by replacing teachers — but by removing friction.

Teachers stop being human traffic lights.
Students stop being passengers.

This is why AI isn’t about automation.
It’s about momentum.

The most powerful learning moment isn’t when someone explains something to you.

It’s the moment you realize:
“I don’t have to wait anymore.”

That’s not just a productivity gain.
That’s a mindset shift.

And once students experience agency...
they don’t want school to go back to waiting.

One simple test for any AI use in schools:

Does this give students more time with a caring adult?

If the answer is no, pause.

The most responsible uses of AI aren’t flashy.

They quietly remove the work that pulls teachers away from:

noticing who’s struggling

responding in the moment

building trust that makes learning possible

When AI gives time back to students, teachers don’t become less important.

They become more present.

That’s the kind of progress worth protecting.

If teachers ever feel replaceable, AI has already failed.

Not because the technology is dangerous —
but because leadership lost its anchor.

Teaching is not a set of outputs.
It’s judgment, care, and trust in real time.

AI should make those things more visible, not less.

Any strategy that forgets this will struggle — no matter how sophisticated it looks on paper.

One reason AI conversations go sideways in schools:

Leaders borrow language from vendors.

“Scale.”
“Optimization.”
“Efficiency.”

None of those words describe why people became educators.

Try this instead:

“This should help us be more present with students.”
“This should protect professional judgment.”
“This should reduce unnecessary load.”

Language signals intent long before strategy does.

Language matters more than leaders realize.

❌ “AI will help us be more efficient.”

✅ “AI should give teachers more time to focus on students.”

❌ “This will modernize instruction.”

✅ “This should reduce workload, not increase pressure.”

The words we choose signal intent.

And right now, teachers aren’t listening for innovation —
they’re listening for reassurance.

A teacher once asked me:

“Is AI coming for my job?”

The most effective response wasn’t technical.

It was human:

“No. And if it ever feels like it is, we’re doing something wrong.”

That sentence doesn’t solve everything —
but it signals intent.

And in moments of uncertainty, intent matters more than explanations.

Starting tomorrow I’m doing 28 days of Lovable.
And yes, I’m giving out credits at the end.

And here’s why I am doing it.

About a year ago, I was struggling more than I let on.
Not stuck because I was lazy.
Not stuck because I wasn’t smart enough.

I simply didn’t have a system to fall back on when things got messy.

So I built a few, and now I want to share them with everyone.

Over the next 4 weeks, I’m breaking down how I actually build with Lovable - from ideas → systems → shipping → autonomy.

Not just what I do.
But why it works.

At the end, I’ll be giving out Lovable credits to the best project built during the challenge. But the criteria on what I think is best is completely different from the usual scoring systems. 

You’ll have to stick around and follow along for that one! 

Also, let me be very clear:
> Credits alone won’t make you a better builder.
> Tools alone won’t make you a better builder.
> AI alone won’t make you a better builder.

What I actually want people to walk away with is:
a new way to think
a way to structure their work
a way to remove themselves as the bottleneck
a way to execute anything they decide to build next

That’s (hopefully) the real prize.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re “not technical enough”, or you start projects but don’t finish, that tools feel magical but unreliable and AI helps… but not consistently…

This series is for you. 

At the end, all the videos, prompts and lesson materials will be inside this companion app. My hope is that you find it useful and then also send it to someone you care about. 

Let’s build something Lovable together.

GTM AI Coding Engineer at Lovable | L5: Diamond Certified

I almost talked myself out of doing this event...

Standing on a stage. 
Running a room. 
Being “the guy” responsible for the energy, the flow, the outcome. 

I’ve done and built a lot of things, but this was different. 

This was public. 
Human. 
Unscripted.

But in reality, that fear was the point.

Last Friday in Miami, Sabina Shuminov from CGU hosted a Lovable buildathon, and it ended up being one of the most fulfilling experiences I’ve had in a long time.

Yes, AI is moving fast. 
Yes, the tools are getting absurdly powerful.

But after watching a room full of people of first-time Lovable users, builders, designers, non-technical founders and engineers, curious minds sit together, talk, laugh, get stuck, help each other, and create… it became obvious again:

Nothing beats human-to-human interaction!

That moment when it clicks; “Wait, I can actually do this”, never gets old.

I was nervous going into it. 
I hate being on stage more than I’d like to admit. 

And to make things even more intimidating, I had to follow an absolutely killer fireside chat by Unnat Bak from Revscale AI, who crushed it so hard it felt borderline irresponsible to put me up next.

But that’s the lesson I keep relearning: The things that scare you a little are usually pointing at the exact direction you should move in.

I walked away with new friends, new energy, and a much deeper belief in what we’re building at Lovable.

And while I don’t love singling people out, meeting Teresa Hill in person, winner of S2 of She Builds was a highlight. Someone I’ve admired from afar, now face-to-face, and I have zero doubt she’s onto something big.

If you’ve been sitting on an idea…
If you’ve been waiting to feel “ready”…
If fear has been quietly calling the shots...
Build the thing anyway.
What’s actually stopping you?

Most people already gave up on their New Year’s resolution.

Not because they’re lazy.
Not because they don’t want it badly enough.

But because January is built on pressure, not systems.

Here’s the part nobody talks about:
</> Starting something new in January feels performative.
</> Starting something new in February feels intentional.

By now:
</> the noise has died down
</> the motivation posts stopped
</> reality kicked in

Which makes this the best time to begin.

I’m about to start something that’s not about motivation at all.

It’s about building systems instead of hype, making progress without burning out, learning how to start, stop, and restart properly.

If you’ve been telling yourself “I’ll start again later” - this is later.

Lovable: You can now queue your messages!

Me: ☕ 

Lock. In.

Every product you use exists because someone got annoyed enough to fix something for themselves.

That is not a cliché. 

That is literally how this works.

Welcome to Day 1 of 28 Days of Lovable. Before we touch a single line of code or an AI builder, we have to find a problem worth caring about. 

And here are the places to find those ideas:

Your search history is a gold mine.

If you are struggling with something right now, chances are thousands of other people are too.

Open your browser. 
Look at what you have been Googling in the last 30 to 90 days. 
You will find things like:
- Best finance tracker
- PDF compressor
- Tool for X but simpler

If you searched for it, you wanted it badly enough to stop what you were doing. That is signal. 

Now ask yourself: What annoyed me enough to search for this?

Usually, it is because existing tools are bloated, too expensive, or too slow. This is where your idea sharpens. You are not building a tool; you are removing friction.

To move forward, turn your problem into a story:

"I want to build a web-based tool for [who] who struggle with [specific problem], because existing solutions [what they do wrong]. This tool will feel [simple / fast / focused] and solve [one core thing] really well."

By the end of today, you should have one real problem from your own life and a short idea story written in plain English. 

No code yet. 
Just clarity.

For more resources on how to find good ideas, catch the full Day 1 lesson at https://lnkd.in/eWZShRpu

February is usually the worst month of the year.

The hype is gone.
The weather sucks.
The “new year, new me” energy is dead.

Most people are tired, behind, and quietly disappointed.

But that’s exactly why February can be the best month to start something.
And doing it loudly and publicly.

Not fueled by motivation. But discipline to show up daily. 

I’m putting something together that’s built for this moment, when the noise is gone and reality is back.

If you want to actually do something this year this is a good time to lean in.

February doesn’t have to be the month you fall behind.
It can be the month you quietly get started the right way.

I’ll drop the details tomorrow.

Who wants a free website?

I'm looking to up my vibe coding level from L3: Gold. Lazar Jovanovic shines bright like an L5 💎 and thanks to him shared the news about this great new Lovable feature. But really I'm looking to hone my vibe coding skills as I build out my own portfolio of businesses. So I'm offering to build a website for someone, (or a basic app MVP) and film the process. Happy to look at names, logos, domains etc, if needed.

So if you want one, drop a comment about what you want built. I'll choose one and do my best to bring your vision to life.

Anyone in Miami area, join me in a few weeks and let's build something Lovable!
