Founder of The Learner Lab
Trevor Ragan
Hi! I’m Trevor Ragan, I have the best job in the world.
I spend all of my time doing three things:
-
1 Learning
I read a lot, but the best learning happens in conversation. I sit down with researchers, watch great teachers and coaches work, and ask a lot of questions.
-
2 Making Content
Writing the articles, producing the videos, recording the podcasts. It’s the hardest part of the job and my favorite: taking real science and making it fun, useful, and easy to understand.

3 Leading Workshops
Since 2014 I’ve led hundreds of workshops — in prisons, with MLB and Olympic teams, Fortune 500 companies, and 200+ schools. It’s the thing I do best, and every single one makes me better.
None of this would exist without my mentors, my teachers, and the researchers who have shared their work with me along the way.
I am so excited to keep learning together!
