Growing up in Maine, I returned to “Vacationland” in 1991 after graduating from Wheaton College in Norton, Massachusetts. I decided to get my feet in the professional world by accepting a position as an Assistant Director of Admission and Admission Liaison for the Radiologic Technology Program with Mercy Hospital at a small, Catholic college in Standish, Maine. While enjoying this position and the beautiful state of Maine, the harsh winters finally got the best of me and I started looking at professional opportunities in warmer climates. An opening became available in Admission at St. George’s School, and I decided to travel “south” for an informative interview to research “this beautiful campus that everyone was talking about.” Upon driving up the main drive and looking across the playing fields, I had my “Ah, hah!” moment and instantly fell in love with the Hilltop.
Fast-forward many years, I am still working in the admission office as an Associate Director of Admission. The feeling of community that I fell in love with when I arrived on the campus back in 1994 is one of the many things that has kept me here at SG and passionate about my profession. Serving as both a dorm head in an upper form dorm and co-day student advisor, advising six wonderful advisees, and coaching junior varsity field hockey are also some of the many hats that I enjoy wearing. It is a joy knowing that I am part of this Hilltop community where everyone's voice is valued.
