Show Notes

Sara Leoni joins The Data Nerd podcast to discuss bridging the skills gap and the future of data analytics education through Ziplines Education, where I also have the privilege of serving as a mentor.

Sara is the CEO and founder of Ziplines Education, a company that partners with universities to offer industry-focused certificate courses for the digital-first workforce. Recently rebranded from GreenFig, the company announced a $6.4 million Series A funding to help close the skills gap.

With over 20 years of experience, Sara excels in leading high-performing teams and driving significant business growth. She has spoken at major events like the ASU+GSV Summit, Dreamforce, and the UPCEA Annual Conference. Before Ziplines, she was CEO of Rafter, where she saved students half a billion dollars. Sara holds a BA in marketing and communications from UNLV and enjoys traveling, skiing, hiking, and spending time with her partner and five sons.
