Mom & Founder of Kelleher Consulting Group
Julie Kelleher is a mom to two elementary school-aged girls and a market strategy and marketing executive in the education technology (aka EdTech) space. She is the founder of Kelleher Consulting Group, a boutique firm focused on helping technology companies elevate their view of the education and learning markets to propel their products and services forward through customized services along the go-to-market continuum.
Julie has dedicated her entire career to education. She spent the early years as a public school teacher in Atlanta, GA, followed by two years teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) to all grade levels as a Peace Corps Volunteer in rural Ukraine. In 2007, she entered the EdTech space and never looked back.
Her career path is rooted in lifelong learning and intentional proximity, which enables her to bring more than 17 years of experience in leadership roles at education technology companies across product marketing, B2B marketing, sales, sales enablement, market research, and market strategy to the clients she serves. Julie has deep knowledge of the K12 and higher education markets and applies this through what she calls a “market-first, product-forward” approach to helping companies enter or expand their reach and impact in these markets.
After nearly two decades in the Washington, DC, area, she now lives in Richmond, Virginia, with her husband, two young daughters, and a devoted black lab. When not working or chasing her girls around, she enjoys any outdoor activity she can find time for.
