Mitchell Broderick Adam Witty
“I was bored and restless in
school - and paying too much. I
knew I could do more but didn’t
know how to get my foot in the
door and get started.”
“We needed people for one
of our toughest sales roles
and it’s not easy to find
them through traditional
channels.”
Solution

Mitchell Broderick Adam Witty
“Praxis got me in the door at a
company I couldn’t have accessed
myself without a degree and a network
and experience I didn’t yet have.”
“From the moment Praxis connected
me to Mitchell I knew he was a winner.
Praxis put the pieces together in a
way no traditional program can.”

Unfair Advantage:
Developed strategic relationships
with like FBLA, DECA, 4H, High
School Hackathons, and other
hubs of high-caliber young
people. We’ve established
ourselves as the go-to for those
better than college.
Unfair Advantage:
Substantive following in the
homeschool community across
the country and our Teen
Entrepreneurship Course extends
our sales pipeline into 12-16 year
old homeschoolers. The Future of
School downloaded 1500+ times.
Unfair Advantage:
Considerably cheaper alternative
to graduate school with a higher
placement rate.
Unfair Advantage:
Only option for non-coder, non-
technical high caliber college opt-
outs. While coding bootcamps
and programs like MakeSchool
attract hackers, non-technicalists
are attracted to Praxis.

“I eat, drink, and sleep for
one purpose: to help people
discover and do what makes
them come alive. Nearly
everyone wants to be
creative, live freely, and do
meaningful work. Very few
know how. I had to build
something that offers more
than pep talks and
motivational quotes;
something that not only
inspires, but that empowers
people to actually create
what they want.”
T.K. Coleman
Education Director
“I dropped out of the
University of Michigan
because I was bored. I taught
myself digital marketing and
made great money helping
companies grow fast. I joined
the Praxis team because I
knew other young people
were wasting time and money
in school just like I had, and
I’m committed to solving that.
I want to help build the
education revolution.”
Derek Magill
Marketing Director
"I've tried just about every
form of education and spent
my professional life working
with both students and
business owners. I couldn't
stand to see talented people
stuck on the education
conveyor belt while
opportunities abound. Praxis
had to be created."
Isaac Morehouse
CEO
"I have an unquenchable
desire to build things and to
be around builders. I dropped
out of an Ivy League school
for the opportunity to build
Praxis and surround myself
with great people. I love the
opportunity to help founders
grow their companies with
young people like myself."
Zak Slayback
Business Development
Director
"I joined the program when
it launched and fell in love
with the experience and the
vision. I’m a systems builder.
Working closely with our
education, marketing, and
operations teams has
allowed me to develop a
complete view of the
company. I'm focused on
using that knowledge to
build Praxis into what it
should be."
Cameron Sorsby
COO

  • 10. Team 10 “I eat, drink, and sleep for one purpose: to help people discover and do what makes them come alive. Nearly everyone wants to be creative, live freely, and do meaningful work. Very few know how. I had to build something that offers more than pep talks and motivational quotes; something that not only inspires, but that empowers people to actually create what they want.” T.K. Coleman Education Director “I dropped out of the University of Michigan because I was bored. I taught myself digital marketing and made great money helping companies grow fast. I joined the Praxis team because I knew other young people were wasting time and money in school just like I had, and I’m committed to solving that. I want to help build the education revolution.” Derek Magill Marketing Director "I've tried just about every form of education and spent my professional life working with both students and business owners. I couldn't stand to see talented people stuck on the education conveyor belt while opportunities abound. Praxis had to be created." Isaac Morehouse CEO "I have an unquenchable desire to build things and to be around builders. I dropped out of an Ivy League school for the opportunity to build Praxis and surround myself with great people. I love the opportunity to help founders grow their companies with young people like myself." Zak Slayback Business Development Director "I joined the program when it launched and fell in love with the experience and the vision. I’m a systems builder. Working closely with our education, marketing, and operations teams has allowed me to develop a complete view of the company. I'm focused on using that knowledge to build Praxis into what it should be." Cameron Sorsby COO
