Amanda Gulley

Amanda Gulley is the Chief Product and Experience Officer and Deputy of AI and Automation at EdPlus, Arizona State University's enterprise digital education unit, where she leads the technology, user experience, and AI strategy behind one of the largest and most ambitious online education operations in the country.

She is currently leading a cross-functional digital transformation across her unit, a six-month sprint to architect the infrastructure and intelligent systems of their workforce. That work touches everything from AI-powered chatbots to self-service student support tools. She is building the operational backbone for what scaled, AI-augmented higher education actually looks like in practice.

Amanda has spent over 15 years in education technology across K-12 and higher education. Her teams established one of the first higher education design systems built by a university and have shaped partnership experiences with Starbucks, Uber, Google, the U.S. Air Force, the Army, Dreamscape Learn, EDU.FYI, Superhuman and the Mastercard Foundation, all focused on expanding access to education at scale.

She believes the best technology disappears into the experience. She believes AI will fundamentally reshape how education is designed, delivered, and supported, and that the institutions willing to move first, with intention and not just enthusiasm, will define what that future looks like.
