Since 2021, I have been working as co-founder and CTO at Sparkwise (sparkwise.co).

Sparkwise radically scales engaging live group learning by letting people connect, solve challenges, and practice skills together in tech-powered small groups.


We are focused on learning in the workplace (recognizing that "the workplace" now takes a lot of different forms) and offer a new type of online learning platform - based on multiplayer/collaborative active learning - to deliver impact at scale.
  • We build to inspire, with fast-paced group challenges that spark meaningful conversations.
  • We build for impact, with decades of expertise in how adults learn best and in the skills that matter to lives and careers.
  • We build for scale, to give anyone in any organization the power to learn anything, anywhere, anytime, together.
