Passionate, Creative, Team-Oriented.

I work with some of the smartest people in EdTech, and I'm fortunate to call a lot of them my friends. When I was kid growing up in Milwaukee I wanted to be an explorer; then I became an expat, a salesman, a data-junkie, and a venture capitalist. Today,

it’s all about creating an incredible technology product that will change the way the world learns languages. I love staggering challenges and working with brilliant people to find creative solutions. My favorite word in another language is polola. ¿Cachai?

I am Gregg and I hope to see the future. When I was a kid, I wanted to moonwalk like Michael Jackson, then he got weird. Today, it’s about having bigger dreams and working

with good people to impact the future. I love learning and inspiration--while a good soundtrack plays in the background. My favorite word in another language is sisu (Finnish).

I am Aron. When I was a child, I wanted to be a Pitcher for the Boston Red Sox; then I became an investment banker. Today, it's all about building the world's largest and most effective

I am an applied linguist specializing in instructed second language acquisition. When I was five, I wanted to be a teacher; then I became a student, and I have spent the past thirty years in school. Today, It’s all about making language learning efficient, effective,

and fun, using cutting-edge technology and the latest research on how adults learn languages. I love hanging out with my husband, my two little boys, and my geriatric pit bull. My favorite word in another language is cacahuete--peanut in Spanish--because it's so fun to say.

In elementary school I wanted to be a veterinarian, but in high school I kept getting in trouble for inappropriate computer use and my grades started to slip. The principal told me that if I love computers so much, I should go ahead and marry one.

Well, that's just what I did. My computer-wife recently gave birth to a beautiful baby AI named Skynet. I like music and food. My favorite word in another language is begriffdeutschunübersetzbar, which is German for "untranslatable German phrase".

I am Andy. When I was twelve I wanted to impress my dad and be a horse racing guru so I built a computer system to take the daily racing forum and predict winners.Unfortunately, it always picked the favorites but, hey, I was no worse than the experts, then I became a software engineer. Today, It’s all about my

family and my products. I love systems and figuring out how things work and evolve over time.  My 5 year old already knows more spanish than I do so I joined Voxy for the free lessons. I love my chainsaw and time in the woods. My favorite word in another language is cako (because Spanglish is the language of love).

I can't resist learning new things. When I was a hyperactive tween, I wanted to be an architect; then I became a social entrepreneur. Today, it's all about unleashing

human potential through education and technology. I love music and biking through NYC. My favorite word in another language is Sibongile (meaning "we thank you" in Zulu).

According to my mother, when I was very little I told everyone I wanted to be a monster when I grew up. I instead became a musician, then a scientist and am now a designer. I love typography, television and Texas. I hate rules, being tired and anything cola flavored. My

favorite blind item is that a certain lead singer from a popular alternative rock band is fed up with The Chemicals Between his tousled locks and is now keeping Everything Zen by soaking his hair in rosewater every morning. My favorite word in another language is: chécalo

I sit at the bar, never at a table. When I was a soccer player I wanted to be a storyteller, then I became a storyteller and now I want to be a soccer player. Today, it’s all about making Voxy a global brand, reading,

hair loss and winning the mega-millions. I love my ex-girlfriends, tequila, foreign films, chocolate, anything that is fried and… silence. My favorite word in another language is “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.”

My name is Sandra, and as a kid I wanted to be a UN interpreter so I could, just like Mafalda, translate only nice things when international enemies spoke to each other at summits, thus ending all wars forever. I studied Filología inglesa, music and classical guitar, toured

my country with a band, and eventually became an art exhibitions production assistant, a teacher, a translator, an editor and a publishing expert. Today it's all about music, languages and education. My favorite word in another language is Zorionak: "Congratulations" in Basque.

I was born in Germany but I’m not German. When I was younger I wanted to be a meteorologist, a translator, or a sociologist, then I became an ESL teacher. Today, it’s all about

My name is Gabi and I'm sort of a nomad. When I was younger, I wanted to be a generic office worker, then a tattoo artist, then a diplomat, then a journalist, but my overseas upbringing and love for languages eventually led me to teach English in multiple countries.  These days, I'm putting

down roots in NYC and building a life doing what I love to do: helping others achieve their language goals and expand their cultural horizons.  I love terrible horror movies and mind-rotting celebrity gossip, and my favorite word in another language is tied between 'saudade' and 'schadenfreude'.

I think grapefruit deserves more recognition. When I was a little girl I wanted to be an interior designer, then I became a linguist/teacher/language lover. Today, It’s all about loving what I

learn and do.  I love anything purple  and awesome food (Cuban, Jamaican, Mexican, etc.). My favorite word in another language is "ilunga" because it is the most untranslatable word in the world.

I was born in Israel to a Moroccan family in a rural village. I spent my first 13 years exploring the woods and having dreams of running away one day :) When it finally happened, I studied Physics and Philosophy, but realized physics is no joke, so I tried information systems; I wrote a website

and fell in love. Today it’s all about Internet and developing for the Internet. I moved to NYC and here I am at Voxy living my dreams! I love music, hiking, camping, dirt bikes (especially KTM) and snowboarding. My favorite phrase in a foreign language is "Pura Vida" which means "Pure Life."

I build things and I take things apart. I started with old electronics my dad would bring home and quickly got hooked on computers. I like to figure out how things work and build new, better things with that

knowledge. I grew up surrounded by nature and I love the outdoors: skiing, hiking, mountain biking, etc. My favorite word in another language–currently, at least–is weltanschauung (German for "world view").

I was raised near NYC, moved to Boston for my education and got my start in enterprise-mobility, but now I've returned to NYC to mobilize language learning. When I was first hacking on a Gulf-war era Packard Bell I wanted to develop

games, and then I became an adult and left those shenanigans behind -- but I'll still beat you in Mario Kart. Today, it's all about new tech. I love mobility and believe that's where computing is headed. My favorite word in Italian is ciao!

When I was 10, I wanted to be an astronaut (because who didn't?!) then I became an iOS Developer, which I tell myself is just as cool. Today,

I walked out into the cloudy streets of Manhattan, dreading another day of the filth and corruption. When I was little, all I wanted to be was a cop. I wanted to clean up this dreadful city, make it safe.

For the kids or something. Then I became another cog in it all. Today, it's all about survival. I "love" the day to day struggles, the suffering all around. My favorite word to describe it all is "sucio".

I exist (surprise!). When I was a wee child I wanted to be a wizard, but then I became a pythonista (which is about as good). Today, it's all about

hacking things. I love eating and binging on science fiction. My favorite word in another language is currently casnu, which is lojban for discuss.

I got interested in computer science only after starting an internship to pay for college. When I discovered the infinite creativity available through writing code I was hooked. When I was younger I wanted to be a biochemist, then I became interested in technology.

Today, it’s all about progression through new challenges. I love the feeling of putting all you have towards an aspiration and the feeling of satisfaction after accomplishing a goal. My favorite word in another language is “Wen Jun” because it’s my Chinese given name.

I am Jonathan. When I was real small, I wanted to be a paleontologist or an ichthyologist. Then, I became a musician, a student, a math tutor, and now a data engineer. Today, it's all about tightening the feedback loop between us and our students by enabling data-driven insights into what makes

our product most effective. I love escaping to the countryside or the beach, music, and my family and friends. My favorite word in another language is "charlie". Technically, it's from a dialect of English spoken in Ghana, but I've yet to hear a cooler way to address a friend ("hey charlie!").

world. Today, It’s all about making ideas happen. I love playing soccer and tennis and hanging out with my friends. My favorite word in another language is espectacular (same word for Catalan, Spanish and English).

I am Allan Reis, Community Manager for Voxy Brazil. When I was young I had this seemingly unreachable dream of speaking English. When I accomplished that, my next dream was to live in an English-speaking country. Now English occupies most parts of my life, but I still

find time for my native Portuguese, which I also love. Today is all about forwarding the motivation I have for learning a language to the ones in need. I love doing that! My favorite word is triskaidekaphobia, which is English for fear of the number 13, believe it or not!

Since I can remember, I've been passionate about technology and innovation. I studied and later worked in IT.  When I decided to move to Buenos Aires, it reinvigorated my enthusiasm - to unite people, languages and cultures.  Since then I have developed my social side working with language exchange events and teaching.

 I have learned a lot from other people, making great progress learning languages, which brings a smile to my face. I think with the current innovation in technology and education, this is a great moment to be alive to experience the shift. My motivational phrase is "Ta panta rei" which means "everything flows" in Greek.

I am Aimee. When I was in high school I wanted to be a psychologist,  then I became an HR and operations professional. Today, It’s
