Microschool Founder

Sebastian Predescu is new to the education space coming from a 12-year career in business and technology. In 2022, he began substitute teaching in the San Francisco Bay Area and loved working with students, but also saw many ways in which schools could be better. He learned about microschools while working with the Wildflower Foundation and was immediately inspired by the model. He’s excited to develop Inner Fire Academy, working with 8-12-year-olds to help them unlock their full potential and build an intrinsic love of learning at his microschool in San Francisco, CA.
Sebastian holds a bachelor’s degree in economics from Harvard University. He is a Romanian-Canadian former national chess champion who’s lived on three continents and speaks five languages. He enjoys basketball, yoga, reading, and strategy games.
