Your partners in education

At Crosscut Studio, we're your partners in creating highly successful, human-centered learning experiences (digital, analog, or anything in between).

We exist because we’ve seen too many well-meaning, well-funded institutions fail at designing new education offerings. We've seen eagerly anticipated launches and programs falter that could have succeeded. Leaders are left discouraged and confused; what did they miss? 

We make sure you don’t miss anything by grounding our work in:

  1. Deep knowledge of the current landscape and pulse of education.

  2. A design process that prioritizes data from learner research and iterative prototyping.

  3. A product that places the learner, not the screen, at the center of the design.

  4. A willingness to think strategically, expansively, and creatively.

Our Expertise

We draw from decades of expertise in design thinking, digital learning production, curriculum development, classroom practice, and business strategy. We stand out in the field as specialists who design future-facing educational experiences that resonate with today's learners and lead the industry forward.

We know that our world, and especially education, is changing fast and that your organization needs to evolve along with it. You can trust our team to be your partner and guide as you dream up your next big move in education.
