Wayfinder | Our Team

About Us

Our Team

We’re a team of educators, designers, and purpose-driven leaders committed to helping students prepare for what’s next.

Our Mission

We partner with educators to guide students through meaningful learning experiences that help them build belonging, purpose, and future-ready skills.

Who We Are

At Wayfinder, we believe that every team member plays a vital role in our mission. Rather than listing individual bios, we’ve chosen to celebrate our shared purpose through snapshots, stories, and reflections.

Our work is deeply collaborative, and this approach allows us to highlight the energy, creativity, and commitment that drive Wayfinder forward. More than any one person, it’s about how we show up together—helping students and educators navigate their futures with confidence, authenticity, and joy.

Working with Purpose

Purpose isn’t just something we teach—it’s how we work. As a product of the Stanford d.school, our curriculum and activities are created using human-centered design. We engage directly with students and educators, gathering insights and feedback that shape everything we create. Below, hear from members of our team about the Purpose that drives their work every day.
