Aaron McCloud

Accelerator Advisor, CEO Intervene K-12

Aaron grew up in South Central Los Angeles. He struggled academically throughout middle and high school in LAUSD. He enlisted in the US Navy and discovered a passion and aptitude for engineering when he was recruited into the Navy Nuclear Power Program.

After the Navy, Aaron pursued his passion by receiving support from tutors to help close his academic gaps. He started in community college, then completed a BS in Mechanical Engineering at the University of Southern California, then a MS Engineering and MBA at the University of Michigan. After years of working in Maritime, Defense and Energy Sectors he learned of the deficits in skilled workforce pool due to so many students like himself struggling in K-12, thus not qualified for high demand jobs.

In 2015, Aaron decided to build a high-impact tutoring program, Intervene K-12, using data-driven LIVE online small group tutoring to help struggling students become high performers ready for the workforce.
