Hey there,
I’m Kat Clark.

I’ve dedicated my career to empowering teachers and students. I currently run a storytelling project called Teachers in Their Power and lead Wayfinder’s marketing team.

I was previously a senior manager on Apple’s Worldwide Education Strategy team, and I’ve been a fractional CMO for early-stage edtech startups like Schoolfundr and TeachFlows.

Earlier in my career, I served on the administration of four schools in three states, including Khan Lab School at Khan Academy. I helped establish Red Bridge, a school focused on student ownership and independence, and was a founding member of the young leaders board at Aim High.

As the first marketing hire at Landed, I helped teachers buy homes in expensive cities. At Apple, I pitched and launched Apple Learning Coach — a free professional learning program that trains instructional coaches, digital learning specialists, and other coaching educators to help teachers get more out of technology. I led the development of the learning experience design and the marketing strategy and built out the program with a talented team.

I value community, compassion, decisiveness, empathy, honesty, and joy. Most of all, I value children.

Teachers in Their Power is seeking collaborators, grants, and partnerships to help change the narrative about the teaching profession. Please reach out if you’d like to connect!
