Aceable hires Ben Carolan as Vice President of Strategic Development

AUSTIN, Texas, Feb. 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Aceable, the mobile education platform and creators of the first state-approved driver's ed app, announced today the hire of Ben Carolan as Vice President of Strategic Development to support the firm's expansion into new verticals with business development partnerships.

Carolan joins the Austin office with more than 10 years of business development and online management experience. "Ben is a key addition to our executive team and critical to building new partnerships and relationships," said CEO Blake Garrett. "His depth of experience and leadership are exactly what we needed as we look to handle our explosive growth."

Carolan was hired after an extensive national search. "We spent months looking for the right person," said Geni Glynn, People Lead at Aceable.

"Aceable has created an exciting product that appeals to a huge audience," said Carolan. "We have only scratched the surface with Drivers Education and as we move into our next vertical of Real Estate education, people will really see the nearly endless possibilities for this company."

Morgan Flager of Silverton Partners, one of Aceable primary investors said, "There isn't another company in a stronger position to be the leader for this new ecosystem and Ben will be a huge asset as Aceable seeks to leverage its growth for partnerships."
