Yesterday, Pathwise announced the promotion of Kris Laseter to president and chief operating officer.

The change comes on the heels of another record-setting year for the company, with doubled revenue over the past two years and several high-profile transportation deployments, including two of the 10 largest school districts in the United States.

Laseter joined Pathwise in fall 2025 as COO, bringing more than two decades of global leadership experience spanning K-12 education, healthcare, government and Fortune 100 technology companies.

In her expanded role, 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 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.”

“It’s an honor to step into this role at a moment when Pathwise has so much momentum,” Laseter said. “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.”
