On today’s episode, I am so excited to share that we have the pleasure of chatting with Dr. Kecia Ray. We have been inspired by how well she’s leveraged her success to become one of the most influential leaders in K-12 education today. We explore the path to Kecia's success and her advice for others who want to raise their profile or to grow their brands.  

Kecia's career spans from designing technology within the Frist Art Museum and directing technology research through Vanderbilt University School of Medicine Science Outreach programs to being appointed as a turnaround agent by the Tennessee Commissioner of Education and established award-winning instructional technology programs recognized by the United States Department of Education and Harvard University.

Dr. Ray was named ’20 to Watch’ by the National School Board Association, Woman of the Year by the National Association of Professional Women, a Top 10 EdTech Leader by Tech and Learning, an ISTE Making IT Happen recipient, and most recently named a Top 100 EdTech Influencer by EdTech Digest.
