William blends over a decade of classroom experience with the operational focus of an educational entrepreneur. Having navigated grant initiatives as a teacher and founded a private academic support agency, he bridges the gap between pedagogical goals and business strategy—ensuring that funding is not just secured, but successfully implemented to drive student growth.

With a focus on advocacy and partnership development, O.Z. manages the outreach and messaging required to build winning coalitions. Whether coordinating with state agencies or aligning private sector donors with scholarship granting organizations (SGOs), his work ensures that all parties are moving in lockstep. O.Z. is responsible for articulating the firm’s vision: that every school deserves the infrastructure and financial backing to help its students thrive.

A veteran of the non-profit and fundraising sectors, Pip leads our stakeholder engagement and business development. She identifies prospective school partners, navigates school board governance, and connects educational leaders with the scholarship and grant opportunities that fuel their growth.
