About

Sean has extensive expertise in non-profit and for-profit education, technology, management, and leadership. He specializes in crafting exceptional learning experiences and productive working environments from classrooms to boardrooms.

Sean started his educational career at Riverdale Country School, a nationally-renowned private school in the Bronx, NY. In his 14 years at Riverdale he became its Director of Academic Technology and Chair of Computer Science; built the school’s first long-term continuing education program for teachers; implemented the school’s first emergency contact system; and rebuilt and reinvigorated its Computer Science curriculum (increasing enrollment by 800%).

He followed this with leadership roles in two nationally-ranked adult career-change bootcamps, where he honed a talent for bringing order to the chaos of “hyper-growth.” In these fast-paced companies, Sean built high-performing educational teams and operationalized educational quality control systems. His successful leadership led to average student satisfaction of nearly 95% despite the high demands of the programs and enrollment. He simultaneously led critical internal projects to improve company culture and success, including a rewrite of the Vision/Mission/Values, revitalization of company-wide meetings, and production and distribution of two successful podcasts on education (one of which was selected as a top podcast on education).

Sean’s additional backgrounds in theater performance, media creation, and technology all contributed to his skills in presentation, collaboration, problem-solving, media production, management, and leadership.
