In Season 11 Episode 8, Hayley Spira‑Bauer sits down with Christopher Hull, Co-founder & President at Otus, to explore how meaningful data use can restore time, clarity, and humanity to teaching. A former middle school teacher, Chris shares how mentors helped him find his voice and why classroom frustrations—especially inefficient, narrative‑driven problem‑solving meetings—sparked the idea for Otis. He explains how a comprehensive, longitudinal student profile enables educators to move beyond fragmented storytelling to actionable insights, helping schools identify root causes, respond thoughtfully to parent concerns, and focus on what matters most: student engagement, motivation, and growth over time.
