Head of School

BA Dartmouth College 

MALS Dartmouth College

I grew up in Concord, Massachusetts as the son of two teachers. My father attended Dublin and later taught at the school. My brother, sister and I were raised in the "Dublin way" and it feels very natural to now be living and working at the school with my wife Lisa, son Calvin and daughter Lilly. We love to ski, hike, and bike throughout the Monadnock Region.

What book has made you think the most?: Jhumpa Lahiri’s "Interpreter of Maladies"

If you could be a superhero, what would you want your superpowers to be?: I would want to slow down or stop time, not indefinitely, but just enough to do a couple more things each day.

If your life had a theme song, what would it be?: Rocky Mountain High by John Denver.

What teacher has had the most impact on you? How were they special?: Paul Wright, my sophomore math teacher. Mr. Wright taught well into his 70's after serving as headmaster at Groton and was one of the hardest working teachers I have ever met. He never gave up on his students and demanded that we give our very best effort.

How would your friends describe you in 3 words?: Enthusiastic, supportive, curious.

You are hosting a dinner party and must invite 3 famous people. Who would you choose and why?: Thomas Jefferson because I have so many questions I need to ask him. I have always wanted to have dinner with Bob Dylan, but now worry I might have missed the window of coherence. Georgia O'Keefe's lived such a great life and shared my love for the American west. Now that's a dinner party!

If Hollywood made a movie about your life, whom would you like to see play the lead role as you?: Colin Firth.
