Senior🎓
Top SchoolJacksón Smith is a technology leader, storyteller, and co-founder serving as CTO of the Learning Economy Foundation and a Brain Trust advisor at XPRIZE, with 11 years of experience building mission-driven systems that bridge education, workforce, and policy. He designs and ships pragmatic, user-centered solutions—from AR tools for street workers and satellite inventory systems to educational games and public reporting platforms—grounded in a philosophy that technology must be radically accessible and used for good. A frequent writer and global speaker published across 140 countries, he synthesizes technical detail and strategic vision to translate “napkin ideas” into operational programs and partnerships. Trained in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics, he blends humanities-informed thinking with technical architecture, and even experiments with playful language in prose and fiction to explore how data-driven societies seek meaning.
