Meet Dr. Vernell
Pitch Strategist | District Leader
With over 20 years in K–12 education—and 10+ years making decisions on behalf of a school district—I know what actually moves a proposal from “maybe” to “approved.”
I created PitchEDU because I saw too many brilliant entrepreneurs missing out on district opportunities—not because their offers weren’t strong, but because they didn’t know how to position, price, and pitch in a way that resonates with decision-makers.
I’ve helped entrepreneurs and consultants win over $2.8 million in district contracts—and I’m here to help you do the same.
Our Mission
To equip visionary education experts and entrepreneurs with insider tools, strategy, and coaching to secure high-value contracts with school districts—without leaving their 9-to-5.
Our Vision
To become the leading authority in K-12 district contracting-building a community of confident, well-paid entrepreneurs who drive meaningful change in schools and districts across the nation.
