Matt Gambino
I’m Matt Gambino. My entire 25-year-career has been spent in two worlds: education and edtech sales.
I’ve been a salesperson, a sales leader, and a consultant, but the most talented, empathetic, and effective people I’ve ever worked with are all former teachers.
My podcast, 'Always a Teacher,' and my training are built on one simple truth: the skills you mastered in the classroom are exactly the skills you need to be a successful, trusted advisor in edtech.
