Beaver Reflections:
I graduated from Beaver in 2007 and had a great time. Something that really stood out to me was a nice quote from Mr. Hutton during graduation, in which he said, “Dave never let school get in the way of his education.” I am so grateful and appreciative that I had such a unique experience at Beaver. For example, I got credit to get a car to run on waste cooking oil, built an electric guitar, and taught a shop class to 6th graders on subjects that are normally outside of the expected curriculum but material that Beaver taught me. Looking back, Mr. Brooks was an amazing advisor, lacrosse coach, and mentor. He taught me how to weld and build all sorts of things. Another person who I remember from my time at Beaver was a janitor who we called “Big Ed.” He was such a kind person and also taught me so many things about building and fixing things.

What is #happeningnow in your life:
After I graduated from Beaver, I went to University of Rhode Island where I studied business administration and entrepreneurship. After that, I went to work for a startup accelerator called MassChallenge, a program that takes a bunch of startups and provides them with resources to help them grow. I then decided to switch paths and go into the proptech real estate side of things. Now, I work for a company called WiredScore, a proptech company that rates office buildings and multi-family buildings on internet connectivity. I run the Boston, DC/Maryland, Colorado, and Utah regions.

“The faculty at Beaver have so many unique skill sets and backgrounds, and they want to see you succeed and flourish. It is important to find the right person or people to help guide you to success”
