Leadership built for measurable literacy outcomes
RGR's leaders share one track record — turning evidence into measurable reading gains for students, and lasting capacity for the districts they serve.
Our Science of Reading programs drive lasting student outcomes.
Transforming literacy for 3.5 million students with proven, Science of Reading based programs.
Providing districts with effective tools and resources to improve literacy instruction.
Chief Executive Officer
Karl is leading a shift in how education works: companies paid for what students learn, not for what they sell. He has spent his career helping districts distinguish what works from what only sounds good.
Chief People & Culture Officer
Ebony builds the team behind your team, hiring and developing people who know what a reading classroom demands. A former teacher, she spent 15+ years growing talent in education and tech.
Chief Product Officer
Shawn builds what educators and students will actually use, shaped by his nine years teaching, not by a boardroom. He founded Classcraft, used by teachers in 160+ countries, and led product at HMH before joining RGR.
Chief Financial Officer
Natasha makes RGR's outcomes commitments real, structuring the company so we can share risk with districts and stay for the long haul, as she did at City Fund and the Achievement Network.
Chief Partnerships Officer
Diana works with districts on what happens after signing: the rollout, the data, the results. She brings nearly three decades of education leadership from Pearson, McGraw Hill, Scholastic, Amplify, and RethinkEd.
"When exceptional people rally around a shared mission—and are committed to delivering real outcomes for educators and students—extraordinary things become possible."
