Chiara is a marketer and lifelong learner who specializes in launching and scaling tech programs. As a woman in tech who entered with a non-technical background, she is passionate about making the prospect of a career in STEM exciting and accessible to young people all around the world.

Chiara has worked in tech for over 10 years, primarily as an educator in the startup space. She has supported over 100 founders to scale their businesses, and most recently launched TwilioQuest for Education, a STEM product aimed at higher education and coding bootcamps. She holds an undergraduate degree in Business Administration (BBA), specializing in social entrepreneurship with a focus on equity in venture funding for startups.

Italian-born, Chiara’s formative years were spent moving across several countries, giving her the opportunity to learn about different cultures, speak multiple languages, and develop a certainty in each individual’s ability to impact those around them. Nine of those years were spent in South Africa which ingrained in her a deep sense of responsibility towards creating a level playing field for all. In her spare time, you can find Chiara reading up on new topics (from recipes to building IoT devices, and everything in-between!), walking her dog or spending time with friends and family.
