My journey in education and learning started in 2017 as my two kids were starting in elementary school. As a parent, I wanted my kids to explore new skills and talents while my wife and I were trying to balance things between hectic work schedules, busy social and recreational life, and the rising cost of after-school learning. We started Talentnook as a neighborhood learning marketplace in 2019. The last few years of building Talentnook from the ground up, learning, and talking to thousands of parents and students paved the vision for Talentnook as a K-12 school district partner and leader in afterschool enrichment and expanded learning programs.
