About
With over 30 years in education working in both K-12 public schools and the non-profit sector, Dr. Bihr is the Co-Founder of Academic Solutions Group, an education consulting agency that provides strategy and coaching to school districts, administrators and educators worldwide. Dr. Bihr’s expertise ranges from program development and leadership to creating sustainable and equitable learning environments for youth, focusing on serving students from high-needs communities. 

As the former Vice President of Programs and Education for Tiger Wood’s TGR Foundation, Bihr spent 16 years overseeing the personnel, programs, and operations that led to the development of the TGR Learning Lab and the Earl Woods Scholar Program while managing a multi-million dollar budget. Through this work, she realized a critical component of long-term student success correlated directly to educator support and training. With this in mind, Bihr launched TGR EDU: Create, a professional learning program, and TGR EDU: Explore, a digital platform designed for educators to use with students.   

Before joining TGR Foundation, Bihr served as principal of Vista View Middle School in Fountain Valley, CA. She was the 2019 Chair of the STEM Funders Network, a national organization providing resources and professional learning to help teachers, parents, and out-of-school providers better inspire and prepare youth in (STEM). She also serves on the board of directors for Project Tomorrow, which supports the innovative uses of science, math, and technology resources in K-12 schools and communities; advises a variety of business leaders through an EdTech accelerator; and provides coaching to non-profit leaders working in the sports and entertainment field. In addition, Dr. Bihr serves as adjunct faculty for the Rossier School of Education at the University of Southern California.
