In 2011, I started the edtech company Seelio with a passion to improve the return on investment of a college education. Over the past 4 years, we raised close to $2 million in venture funding, grew the staff from 3 to over 30, and expanded our reach to tens of thousands of students. In 2014, Seelio was acquired by Keypath Education, a global education company with offices in the US, Canada, UK and Australia. We have continued to grow the company under the banner of Keypath Education.
