Senior🎓
Top SchoolKent Owen is a commercial analytics leader with over a decade of experience turning complex revenue, pricing, and sales data into strategic decisions for education and tech businesses. As Senior Director of Commercial & Analytics at Cengage, he has scaled pricing and commercial processes across global operations after progressing through analytics and finance roles there since 2016. He combines a finance foundation from McGill with a UC Berkeley master’s in data science to blend rigorous forecasting, automation, and statistical insight—having driven large-budget ownership, bookings stabilization and automation of error-prone pricing workflows earlier in his career. Kent’s background includes improving POS and NetSuite reporting pipelines and materially reducing data variance in divisional bookings, demonstrating an appetite for operationalizing analytics rather than just modeling. Based in Boston, he’s comfortable working at the intersection of commercial strategy, pricing, and data engineering to deliver repeatable, audit-ready outcomes for leadership.
