Under Lynch’s leadership, HMH has undergone a strategic transformation to a digital-first, connected learning company that engages learners, empowers educators and improves student outcomes. In less than six years, he has executed on key changes that have set HMH up for success as a K-12 technology company, from the divestiture of its Books and Media division in 2021, to HMH’s sale to Veritas Capital in 2022, which puts the organization in an even stronger position to increase its positive impact on millions of students and teachers. Supporting this goal, most recently Lynch led HMH’s acquisition of assessment and research organization NWEA, bringing the potential to further transform the K-12 education experience for teachers and students.

With more than 25 years of experience in the edtech space, Lynch has been active in the K–12 education industry since 1999 and was the founding CEO of startup bigchalk.com and later President and CEO of the Pearson Technology Group and Renaissance Learning.
