Founders
Kerry & Becky
“I knew there had to be a better place to learn things online—people deserve an amazing experience.”
Mariko Eleanor, the founder of Learnable, has always been passionate about education and the transformative power of learning. Growing up in Japan, Mariko saw firsthand how access to education can make a difference in people's lives, and she became committed to making education more accessible and inclusive for everyone. After completing her degree in computer science, Mariko worked as a software engineer and a product manager, gaining valuable experience in the tech industry. However, she felt a strong desire to combine her love for education with her skills in technology and entrepreneurship. That's when she decided to create Learnable, an online teaching platform that would empower individuals to unlock their full potential and achieve their goals.
