ICYMI: Stemuli On C-SPAN + Product Updates

In case you missed my recent LinkedIn post, I shared some exciting updates on Stemuli ’s growth and the milestones we’re hitting on our journey. The team has expanded tremendously to a fully-fledged crew across Product, AI/ML, Gaming, and Learning & Development. We now have talented folks with backgrounds from places like Disney, Netflix, Pixar, and Blizzard Entertainment. It’s been exhilarating to witness our team come together and dive head-first into building a revolutionary platform for the next generation. ??

Check out the progress we’ve made:

Our mantra is simple: Learn, Earn, Play, SLAY. It’s a holistic approach that intertwines education with real-life career discovery and skills development, making learning engaging and directly connected to future success. ??

Stemuli on C-SPAN ??

I had the privilege of speaking at the National Press Club in Washington, DC, leading a panel titled "The 21st Century Alphabet," hosted by the The Center for Education Reform and Forbes . It was an honor to gather with other education and policy stakeholders, diving deep into the rapidly evolving world of AI, VR, and other advanced tech in education. We explored the pressing question: Are these new tools just a trend, or can they truly transform education? Spoiler alert—I'm a firm believer that the answer is yes, they can.

The panel was a refreshing reminder that AI, XR, and VR aren’t just buzzwords; they’re powerful tools with the potential to level the playing field and genuinely address educational disparities. Hearing insights from other innovators like Edna Martinson from Boddle Learning , Jeff Imrich from Rock by Rock , Adam Sparks from Short Answer , and Matthew Chaussee from Be More Colorful really emphasized the common mission we all share. We want to leverage tech to provide a high-quality, personalized, and equitable learning experience for every student—no matter their background.

Check out the recap here:

Our conversation also focused on addressing the widening gap in education—like the shocking statistic that 87% of American students graduate high school, but only 22% are proficient in math. For us at Stemuli, this mission isn’t just about technology; it’s about creating opportunities and reshaping the future of learning. We’re here to meet students where they are and guide them towards a brighter future.

Takeaways & Reflections ??

Leaving DC, I couldn’t be more optimistic about the future of education technology. The enthusiasm from both educators and innovators was infectious, and it solidified my belief in Stemuli’s mission. We’re building something extraordinary here—a platform where students don’t just learn but get a sneak peek into their future careers, build relevant skills, and are rewarded for their progress.

To all our Day 1’s out there, thank you for following along and believing in our journey. We’re just getting started, and I promise there’s so much more to come. Stay tuned for more updates and let’s continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible in education. ????
