I have dedicated my career to creating new and improved ways of digital learning that have a global impact.
These include EDUKA Dienynas and EDUKA Klasė - the leading LMS platform in Lithuania. When I joined as Head of Technology, EDUKA Klasė was only being used by a handful of schools. I oversaw its rapid adoption and helped it navigate a huge increase in users (up tp 20x growth in one month) during the COVID-19 lockdown. I have also worked in a London-based startup with top UK teachers, leading the development of an online platform used across the UK and in Latin America.
My strong background in tech helps me turn edtech ideas into reality. I graduated with First Class Honours in Computer Science from the University of Edinburgh, worked as a front-end lead at Western Union (leading a team spread across San Francisco, Vilnius and Noida), and co-founded a web development agency Appmakers.
In my current role as Head of Education at Turing College, the first Lithuanian startup to be accepted to Y Combinator, I am responsible for creating and evolving Turing College's unique educational methodology. I bring my experience of having managed and led various IT companies, as well as my deep understanding of education to this role in order to help ensure that our learners gain the skills they need to be successful data science employees.
