Who We Are

Phil Hill (@PhilOnEdTech) has been a market analyst and consultant in EdTech for over two decades. He is most notably recognized for publishing the On EdTech blog and newsletter, which began in 2019 after he decided to separate from the e-Literate brand and blaze his own trail. Revered for his honest and upfront take on market trends for online / hybrid education, OPMs, and learning platforms, Phil provides thoughtful and practical advice to his clients. His unique graphics and visuals have been widely used and shared in the education space. Phil is also a husband, father, and grandfather. He enjoys being outdoors, spending time with his Australian Shepard, craft beer, and live music.

Jeanette strongly believes in the power of education to transform the world and has spent the last 20 years working as an agent of change. After earning an MS in Instructional Design and Organizational Learning, she went on to develop award-winning, stand-alone technology products for Wadsworth Publishing. Jeanette was then named Director of Video Production for Thomson, where she managed a multi-million dollar budget for large video partnerships as well as an in-house video and audio production team. She played a critical role as the Executive Director of Strategic Partnerships at Cengage- working on merger and acquisition efforts, developing and executing strategic initiatives, cultivating and maintaining partnerships, and improving market readiness. Jeanette moved on to Kaltura, where she collaborated with partners on business terms and product features as well as to spearhead their educational strategy. For the last few years, she has applied this experience by helping a variety of large organizations, Private Equity and VCs, small start-ups, and everything in between as a consultant for Phil Hill & Associates. But really, she will always be a middle school teacher at heart.

Prior to joining Phil Hill & Associates, Morgan (she goes by her last name) worked on the Education team at Gartner, covering teaching and learning including learning management systems, online learning, OPMS and online proctoring among other topics. Prior to joining Gartner she worked for over 15 years supporting teaching and learning technologies in higher education at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, George Mason University, the California State University Office of the Chancellor and the University of Wisconsin System. Morgan comes to us ready to provide analysis and commentary on current and future market trends and their impact on education. Morgan holds a PhD from the University of Minnesota. She is in the process of moving to Utah with her spouse and is looking forward to exploring the backroads of the surrounding states as well as new culinary adventures.

Kevin Kelly has been working in higher education for over two decades.

Kevin has worked with several university and community college systems, emphasizing institutional collaboration to support student success in online, hybrid, and hybrid flexible learning. Kevin is known (at least to us) as the Dennis Miller of EdTech for his quick wit and limitless cultural references.
