Studio 37 supports school districts and education companies as they navigate the intersection of education, technology, and business — driving innovation that actually improves outcomes for students and communities.

"I support school districts and EdTech companies in moving beyond technology adoption to create meaningful transformation — that's Studio 37."
EDUCATION INNOVATION BUSINESS IMPACT

Where the three intersect — meaningful transformation happens.

For School Districts

Innovation that sticks — not another bright, shiny object.

Districts don't need more tools. They need a steward who's actually been in the classroom, spent over a decade as an Apple Education Sales Leadership Executive working directly with school and district leaders, and built a business bridging both worlds into district-ready strategy — someone who understands the politics of change and knows how to build alignment before rolling anything out.

What district and school leaders say.

What districts need is true partners — not sales guys. That's what George is. We chose our technology because we have a George — that's the real value, and why we buy.

Founder, Studio 37

Fifteen years teaching Deaf and hard-of-hearing students at Covina-Valley USD sparked a lifelong throughline: sign language as a bridge into spoken and written language for English learners and students with disabilities. That thread carried into 11+ years at Apple, where George served as trusted advisor across 100+ districts, partnered with Downey USD for over 10 years to build the world's largest concentration of Apple Distinguished Schools within a unified school district, and authored the Accessibility OS Integration Guide, adopted as a national Apple Education resource.

Today, Studio 37 supports school districts and education companies at the intersection of education, innovation, and business.

Culture eats strategy for breakfast. Relationships over transactions. Transformation over compliance — that's the belief underneath every engagement.

Every person has a genius.

The challenge is not becoming someone else. The challenge is discovering who you already are.
