Amara is the co-founder and Chief Product Officer at Gooru. Growing up, Amara was lucky to receive an amazing education, unlike much of her family, who escaped the Cambodian genocide. After graduating from Stanford with a degree in Product Design, Amara realized cutting-edge technology being developed in Silicon Valley could be redesigned to serve students. In 2011, she teamed up with Google engineer Prasad Ram to found Gooru with the mission to honor the human right to education. Using innovative technologies like big data and crowdsourcing, Amara wants to empower every student in the world with actionable data to own their learning. She has developed learning coordinate and analytics systems to power a GPS for learning, giving students resources and insights into their learning to help them reach their goals.
