Experience
Affordable Housing - Where I Work
In communities with a booming real estate market, affordable housing is critical. At The Community Builders (TCB), we focus on some of the more economically challenged areas of the country and create safe communities where all people can thrive. My role is to design and implement security systems that provide a safe living environment and technology solutions to help bridge the digital divide in underserved communities.
Organizational Leadership in Education
The Woodward School was founded in 1869 by Dr. Ebenezer to establish a school for girls in preparation for higher education. Woodward continues to operate on Hancock Street in Quincy in the original, historic, wooden school building that welcomed the first class of seven teachers and seventy-six students, on April 10, 1894. Serving as Head of School from 2016 to 2018, it was an honor to lead the school towards an amazing trajectory and into the most complex transformational investment since its opening in 1894.
Software Startups
Between 1999 and 2005, I had the pleasure of working at a series of venture capital backed software startup companies through Pilot House Ventures. These small, early-stage software startup companies provided an amazing opportunity to learn many elements of business, combined with the excitement of innovation and risk.
Strategic Technology - Video, Voice, and Internet
Prior to my work in education, I worked on strategic technology solutions for video, voice, and internet providers including Continental Cablevision, AT&T Broadband, MediaOne, Grande Communications, and Atlantic Broadband. Each of these companies were local access network providers - Hybrid Fiber-Coaxial (HFC) and Passive Optical Networks (PON) - serving residential, commercial, and enterprise customers throughout the United States.
