Bio
Beth joined Vermont Academy after working for five years as the Director of Advancement at the American School in London, England (ASL). She credits the school with helping her develop greater cultural competency skills. Prior to ASL, Beth spent eighteen years in the United States working in leadership positions with Princeton University, Princeton HealthCare System, and Stuart Country Day School of the Sacred Heart. Past positions also include running a community arts agency and fundraising for the Henry Ford Estate at the University of Michigan.

From overseeing the development of new nonprofits to raising record breaking gifts that helped fund a new hospital, Beth credits continued education as the key to a productive career. She obtained her Master’s Degree in Organizational Dynamics from University of Pennsylvania as a mid-career professional and new mother, writing her thesis on the use of positive organizational psychology in fundraising.

Beth lives on campus with her husband John, a retired book publisher, and two dogs. Their daughter Kira is a freshman at Marist College in New York.

The Campaign for Vermont Academy's Future

Priority #1: Shaping the Future with Scholarships

Our students require more scholarship support than ever before.

Volatility, instability, and uncertainty in our society call us to act now.

Economics and social-justice barriers are combining to make it even more difficult for families and students to succeed. We must care for our students and fortify their resilience, creativity, and determination. These are pillars of a Vermont Academy education and the calling card of our alumni who distinguish themselves as leaders and agents of change. Vermont Academy has always helped in these times and we need to step up once again.

This extraordinary moment requires an extraordinary response; a campaign to help students access a Vermont Academy education is essential to our pursuit of the best outcomes for every student. We will scale up scholarships for students to continue to make education available for all.

Together, we have the power to provide a life-changing education when our students need it the most.
