Meet Your Hosts

Evan Melick

Vice President of Product & Marketing

“When you’re making decisions at different junctures, always go with your gut and make it the best. You can never piece it all together until you’re in the rearview mirror. When you give yourself grace and space to reflect, it’s all so fascinating to see it together.”

As the VP of Product at Wisetail, Evan has seen change many times over. She believes in the power of bold decision-making and positively embraces any challenge she’s faced with. Evan takes a people-first approach to every problem she solves — and is incredibly excited to change the future of learning.
