Eva Glasrud attended Phillips Exeter Academy, a prestigious New England boarding school, before she began college at Stanford University. There, she completed her Bachelor's and Master's in Psychology. She also studied abroad at the University of Oxford, where she completed a tutorial on gifted education. This project left her keenly aware of the hardships that too many gifted teens experience in high school.
Since graduation, Eva has worked as a writer and content specialist. In addition to creating eBooks for companies like Intuit and Fisher Investments, she has published essays about high school and college education in Slate, The Huffington Post and YourTango. Her essay about fostering creativity and curiosity in children was voted one of the best Quora posts of 2013.
Although she loves content creation, the work that Eva enjoys most has always been teaching gifted youth. It started with her dorm proctorship in 2005, followed by a summer of fencing instruction and guitar lessons at Montecito Sequoia Lodge. She taught biology and geology at Stanford's Education Program for Gifted Youth, and took a group of American teenagers to Poland for a summer abroad through Experiment in International Living.
