Favorite books?

Growing up, my favorites were the Little House on the Prairie series by Laura Ingalls Wilder. My most recent favorite is The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah.

Something that was cool when you were younger?

Perms, leg warmers, Atari.

Something we wouldn’t know about you?

I taught Second and Third Grade in New Hampshire and Kindergarten in California.

Most interesting job before this?

I worked for Congressional Quarterly in Washington, D.C. as a marketing representative. I had the wonderful opportunity to work with staff from various foreign embassies, congressional offices on Capitol Hill, the Pentagon, and military bases.

What was your own school like?

I attended The Tatnall School in Wilmington, Delaware through high school. The education I received at Tatnall was exceptional and prepared me to be successful in college and beyond. The individual attention, support, curriculum, and extraordinary faculty created my love of independent schools. That’s a big reason reason I wanted my children to attend independent schools as well.
