Bio

I’ve spent my whole career working in educational settings because I believe in the power of schools to shape communities and lives. I joined Beaver in 2014 and was immediately drawn to the way the school creatively engages and supports students through hands-on learning and real-world impact. This approach doesn’t just inspire students and teachers — it also drives how our Philanthropy and Engagement team connects with our community. Our team works to invite and involve our talented parents and alumni to collaborate with teachers and students in meaningful ways. Before Beaver, I held development roles at Bentley University, the American Repertory Theater (A.R.T.) at Harvard University, Shady Hill School, Noble & Greenough School, and Charles River School. I earned my bachelor’s degree from Brown University, where I designed my own interdisciplinary concentration in Visual Art and Political Science.

A native New Englander, I love spending summer days outdoors and at the beach with my husband and two kids — and we’re all big Celtics fans once winter rolls around.
