Q) Greetings Carleen, can you briefly outline your professional journey and what led you to establish EnrichedHQ as CEO?

Over the last 22 years, I’ve carved out a fulfilling career in enterprise tech, starting as a developer for Fortune 1000 clients before expanding into leadership roles across product, operations, marketing, and ultimately, sales of complex infrastructure solutions to C-level executives. As a proud single mother of a 12-year-old son, I’ve always strived to balance my professional aspirations with my parenting responsibilities, often going the extra mile to overcome the biases against working single parents in corporate America.

The challenges of balancing caregiving and a demanding career, especially as a single mother, became even more pronounced with the onset of the pandemic in early 2020. This period not only tested my ability to juggle professional and personal roles but also highlighted the gaps in support for working parents, particularly when it comes to educational and extracurricular opportunities for our children.

Motivated by my experiences and the technological gaps I identified, I founded EnrichedHQ in 2020. My vision for EnrichedHQ was to leverage technology to create a platform that offers virtual extracurricular programs for school-aged children, aiming to support working families, especially women. I wanted to build a solution that addressed my struggles, providing accessible educational opportunities that complement school learning and focus on essential life skills. My aim is to ensure that all children, regardless of their economic background or abilities, have immediate access to the best programs from a single platform.
