  • "Data analytics and machine learning, not only in the e-learning space but in general, is top of mind for me. Combining training data with other applications and bringing machine learning into the mix provides us with findings, learnings and insights that are all the more powerful and enable us to make decisions that produce better outcomes.

    Additionally, with the advancements in video technologies and smart devices, learning can happen everywhere, which is an amazing progression for e-learning. These powerful devices marry the human trend of learning through more video content with learning anywhere and allow us to consume content no matter where we are physically.

    Lastly, API at scale is the most exciting tech trend for me. I’m a huge fan of connectivity. APIs aren’t new and have been around for decades, but what is new is that applications these days are not considered ‘true apps’ if they can’t connect to other apps.

    Combining data and connectivity provides a powerful holistic view and the insights we can get that human minds can’t comprehend on their own is something that really excites me."
