Sean Patrick Ryan is the senior vice president and general manager of Fuel Education which is a part of K-12 Inc., a pioneer of online learning based in Herndon, Virginia. Fuel Education works with schools across the country to bring state of the art learning tools into the classroom in order to drive high level student performance across nearly all grade levels and subjects.

A graduate of the United States Air Force Academy, Sean began his career as a military intelligence officer just before the end of the cold war and the disintegration of the Soviet Union. These events profoundly altered the initial course of his career.

Post business school at Stanford, his move into the education technology space was driven by a strong desire to leverage new learning tools to deliver better student outcomes. He was exposed to an early version of these learning tools when learning Japanese while living and working in Tokyo.

Prior to joining Fuel Education earlier this year, Sean served as the SVP of Sales for McGraw-Hill Education where he also managed the strategic planning process for the entire organization. During his four years at the helm of this 500 person sales organization, his group consistently took market share and increased sales from about $600 million to $800 million in four years.
