A Fulbright scholar, Michelle holds a Masters and PhD in English from Stanford University and is a former Senior Higher Education Research Fellow at the Clayton Christensen Institute.
She was the former Chief Innovation Officer of Strada Institute for the Future of Work. Today Michelle is principal at her startup Rise and Design.
Michelle is delivering insightful messages for educators, legislators, and anyone interested in the future of jobs across America. While the primary audience is higher education, K12 and legislators should pay attention.

However she does firmly plant the need for educators, industry, and government to collaborate to secure America’s continued economic growth. We must all embrace change at a rapid pace impacting work. In order to stay afloat we must embrace continued learning. So, Long Life Learning reveals the rapid change we are experience today. Simply put the pace has increased since the pandemic. As a result, new learning models are needed starting in K12, expanding into higher education, and culminating in her ‘long life learning’ model.
