About Luciano Cossi

Unlocking the potential in each and every student is my passion! I am a driven and focused educational publishing sales representative dedicated to supporting large urban school districts as well as small private, parochial, and charter schools. Partnering with school leaders at all levels and working directly with educators on a daily basis has given me countless gratifying moments. I am motivated every day to serve and support my clients to the best of my abilities and I truly enjoy this vital work.Over the course of my career in education and educational publishing I have had the opportunity to serve in a number of roles both in leadership and in sales, developing unique skill set focused on the client first be it the student, teacher, school, or school district. My experience as a teacher, district administrator, field marketing manager, regional vice president, and account representative have diversified my approach to educational publishing sales, elevating my ability to drive sales and create impactful change for my clients.My drive and ambition do not stop at my career. I am a dedicated parent cheering on my daughter at dance competitions and volleyball games and as a volunteer coach for my son’s little league baseball team and flag football team. I also enjoy an active lifestyle with my family frequenting outdoor activities, such as boating, biking, and backyard leisure, whenever I can get the chance. I also enjoy to travel with my family to experience new communities and cultures. One hobby I love to share with my kids is my love of Lego. Our new home even has a room called the Lego Loft (can you guess what it has inside?) and we are annual Awesomer Pass holders to Legoland Florida. Some other interesting facts about my previous work life include, short order cook, camp counselor, video store clerk, and stadium operations for the Miami Dolphins.Connect with me! I love to collaborate and engage in education focused dialogue.
