Head of School

It is my honor and privilege to serve as the tenth Head of School at South Kent. Since I arrived at the School in December 2021, I realized very quickly what a special place and community we have here on the Hillside. We have always been, and will always be, a community guided by our Trinity of Values – Simplicity of Life, Self-Reliance, and Directness of Purpose – and for 100 years, we’ve been inspired by our Mission to teach, care for, and develop young men into thriving and engaged citizens of the world. 

As a Junior in high school, I was offered a life-changing opportunity to attend boarding school and experience firsthand how a prep school education can help you grow as an academic and a person. I came from a family of educators, and after graduating from college and growing a successful career in finance, I felt called to the education field to give back in the way that my family, teachers, and school mentors had done for me. I taught, coached, advised, and served in many different leadership roles within the boarding school industry, and I am thankful to find myself in a role where I, along with my South Kent colleagues, can continue to make an impact on the next generation of learners. 

In the next several months, I hope to continue to meet and hear from our community as we travel around the country, celebrating 100 years of South Kent School. I am grateful for the opportunity to share my vision for making South Kent an industry leader in small-school, all-boy education, which includes a forward-thinking education model that combines 21st-century innovation with the School’s longstanding traditions and values. As I begin my tenure, thank you for entrusting me to serve as your next Head of School. I look forward to building on the great work we have already accomplished together and leading South Kent in the next successful chapter of our School's history.
