My brother, Whittaker, was in the Gulf Stream School Class of 2004, and is now a senior manager at Accenture. My wife, Kimi, and I welcomed our daughter, Charlotte, into the world this summer. She’s full of spirit!
How did your years at GSS benefit you in all of your post-graduate experiences and help make you who you are today?
Gulf Stream provided a strong foundation for my education and career. I learned the value of hard work, teamwork and critical skills like public speaking. I hope I can provide my own children an equivalent education.
Who was your favorite teacher(s) and/or what was your favorite subject(s)?
I benefited from having so many great teachers at Gulf Stream that it’s hard to narrow down the list. I’ll always remember Mr. Wilson’s history class. He was the ultimate history buff. I loved all the obscure anecdotes he incorporated into his lessons. I didn’t understand most of them at the time but appreciate them today!
Any special experiences, memories or quotes?
I clearly remember the morning of September 11, 2001. We were so shocked and scared. We had English with Miss Gibb that morning. I remember she shared her experience from the war years with the class. She emphasized how important it was to carry on, not to alter our way of life. We then opened our grammar books and held our lesson as usual. I’ll never forget her strength and resolve.
