We discussed her vision for the future. Then we took it a level deeper: → → How can you build a path to get there, starting with your next step?

My time at McGraw Hill rounded out my experience in tech and startups. I was hired as "that startup chick" and was charged with infusing the company with innovation and building out partnerships that would bring MGH into the Tech conversation. I learned a ton about how to create value in a big corporate behemoth, and the importance of helping my boss be successful. Additionally, I: 🎯 Led early M&A conversations with executives across product, strategy, and engineering teams🎯 Developed a data-driven business case for the CEO on a new EdTech innovation strategy🎯 Developed six-figure licensing deals, globally🎯 Managed teams of consultants🎯 Built partnership development and account management strategies

I pivoted from doing BD at Udemy to doing long-term horizon partnerships at Coursera by centering my narrative on my extensive background in Asia. I was brought in to run all partnerships in Asia. Over time, I expanded my scope to include European and American accounts. These intentional role adjustments increased my optionality and allowed me to be regional-agnostic. I leveraged my (literally) universal sales experience to take on bigger and bigger partnerships. I joined Coursera in Series C when the focus was on new revenue channels, and shifting to B2B and higher-ticket learning experiences.Here are my highlights: ⭐️ Managed pipeline of top-ranked global university partners: sourced content that will drive ~$X0M in revenue over first five years by presenting executive stakeholders with data-backed value propositions⭐️ Sourced Certificate program from the University of Chicago: developed champion at the university; worked cross-functionally with marketing team to identify product-market fit ⭐️ Sourced Russia’s first online degree from top-tier university: rallied engineering, legal, and marketing to prioritize program despite complex terms ⭐️ Built sales strategy: worked with C-suite to provide recommendations to the Board of Directors on how Coursera could grow pipeline, improve win rate, and shorten sales cycle ⭐️ Oversaw Coursera’s only Ivy League online degree program: served as the Voice of the Customer to internal stakeholders; scaled impact by customizing messaging to partner’s unique priorities⭐️ Rolled out changes to revenue payment structure that affected ~200 partners: worked cross-functionally with finance and legal to identify solution to complex accounting issues; developed and led communications plan⭐️ Implemented quarterly business review process: built framework and collateral that encouraged teammates to build results-driven, data-backed strategies that aligned with Coursera’s annual and quarterly OKRs

I made the pivot from teaching to Tech by highlighting my resilience and comfort with data. I joined Udemy shortly after the Series C fundraise, at a critical time when the company culture was maturing, but the leadership team was still pushing for fast-paced growth. Here's what I did on a functional level: 🚀 Oversaw global portfolio of 15 accounts: drove revenue through partnership with Singaporean government by building localization strategy, increasing content volume, and managing local operations team🚀 Reframed partnership with Western Union: empowered Syrian refugees to teach and earn money through the platform; obtained buy-in from product and legal to adapt go-to-market strategy for NGO partnerships

I had the great privilege to get in on the ground floor of one of the world's biggest EdTech companies. I started as a part-time English instructor, virtually teaching elementary school children who lived all over China. The role quickly evolved to include curriculum development and working very closely with the Beijing team to build VIPKid's biggest asset: a high-quality learning experience.

I worked closely with a local UNICEF program officer to develop a teacher training curriculum for the Vanuatu school district. It was a valuable opportunity to support a hands-on leader who was reforming and up-leveling the local school system.

Have you ever tried to teach a bunch of third graders in a mountainside village while the power is out and while a few of them are trying to put a leash on a beetle? 🪲No? Well, I'll save you the plane ticket and tell you that it is equal parts thrilling, frustrating, fulfilling, and maddening. This experience in rural China helped me discover my resilience, taught me a ton about structural power and poverty dynamics, and gave me an opportunity to perfect my Mandarin (albeit, I do have a very strong farmer's twang). In addition, I worked with the local government, school leadership, local teachers, and students to create community-centered social entrepreneurship projects. I also raised the average English scores of over 200 elementary students by over 40 percentage points.

This experience in Tibet has probably landed me on China's blacklist, but it was worth it to develop my honor's thesis on the reasons why women in rural Tibetan communities were disproportionately affected by Chinese education policies.
