Amy is one of the most renowned faces of international education globally, & has over the years been instrumental in moving the industry by miles.
Akshay Chaturvedi, Founder & CEO, LeverageEdu, added: “Amy has been a mentor to me personally for a couple of years now, & with this, we are only formalizing that. She will provide Leverage an added dose of expertise as we embrace the fast-changing international education world, & make our next set of big moves globally”.

It’s clear that the Leverage Edu is underpinned by a passion and energy to serve students and the impact they have made in a short space of time in terms of client numbers is impressive.
