I was approached by a startup that has been well under development for a year, founded by a professional educator with a passion for making education more interesting. The discussion eventually settled on my taking sizable minority stake in the company to help with commercialization of the platform.

Leveraging the power of AI, The Whiteboard Studios platform is able to generate beautifully immersive 3D escape rooms and other learning games using simple text prompts, slide decks, or even youtube videos. As one of the only startups in this space, this tech simultaneously addresses several massive needs at once: i) the need for more engaging learning that sticks ii) making it easier to build training and learning material and iii) making learning continuous and accessible through a web browser.

I will be heading commercial strategy, brand development, and a fair bit of degree of product strategy.
