Our Team




Jaime R. Wood is the co-founder of IncitED.  When she's not knee deep in education research, she tricks students into learning cool stuff about the world while they think they're just having a good time. She's been a classroom teacher, poet, book designer, waitress, veterinary technician, world traveler and a pizza delivery driver. Her wish is for IncitED to be the fairy godmother of education.



Kevilina Burbank is the co-founder of IncitEd. Kevilina has been teaching for ten years. She has worked internationally, teaching English to children and adults in China, and was a full-time instructor at a for-profit college where she learned the dangers of monetizing education. She now teaches at a community college where she integrates critical thinking, social awareness and some good wholesome fun into her classrooms.

Steve

Steve Wood is a retired software developer who has come out of retirement to help his daughter, Jaime, and the rest of the IncitEd team in any way he can. He lives in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, where he spends too much time in front of a computer and not enough time at the beach.

Peter

Peter Lindberg is IncitED's marketing guy. He is the son and grandson of public grade school teachers and earned his own teaching chops in ESL classrooms in Asia and the Middle East. He is engaged in an ongoing quest to achieve and maintain the exhaled state of "flow" both personally and professionally. His wish is for IncitED to be the 1968 Fastback Mustang GT of education funding.
