Pathwise Promotes Kris Laseter to President and COO as Company Caps Another Year of Record Growth

Promotion recognizes Laseter's outsized impact as Pathwise doubles revenues in two years and deploys two of the nation's ten largest school districts

LYNNWOOD, WA, UNITED STATES, March 4, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Pathwise, a leading provider of operational solutions for K-12 schools, today announced the promotion of Kris Laseter to President and Chief Operating Officer. The elevation of Laseter's role comes on the heels of another record-setting year for the company, which has doubled revenues over the past two years and secured several high-profile transportation deployments — including two of the ten largest school districts in the United States.

Laseter joined Pathwise in 2025 as Chief Operating Officer, bringing more than two decades of global leadership experience spanning K-12 education, healthcare, government and Fortune 100 technology companies. In her expanded role as President and COO, she assumes broader strategic and operational authority across the organization, working in close partnership with CEO Nate Brogan and the Board of Directors to drive the company's continued growth and execution at scale.

"Kris has been a transformative force at Pathwise from day one," said Nate Brogan, CEO of Pathwise. "Her ability to align teams, accelerate delivery and win the confidence of our largest and most complex customers has been central to everything we've accomplished this past year. Earning the trust of school districts of this scale is the result of the kind of operational discipline and client-centered leadership Kris brings every day. This promotion reflects both what she's already built and what I know she'll continue to deliver as we move into our next chapter."

The company's record growth trajectory underscores the momentum behind the promotion. Over the past two years, Pathwise has more than doubled revenues while expanding its footprint among the nation's most complex transportation environments. The deployments include two of the ten largest school districts in the country — a testament to the platform's enterprise-grade capabilities and the organization's growing reputation for successful implementation at scale.

"It's an honor to step into this role at a moment when Pathwise has so much momentum," said Kris Laseter, President and COO of Pathwise. "Our growth is a reflection of the trust schools place in us — and I take that seriously. My focus will remain on making sure we deliver on that trust with every customer, every day, while continuing to build the operational foundation that lets us scale without sacrificing quality."
