Few MWS staff members have worn multiple hats quite like Devon, who has helped with substitute teaching, buildings and grounds projects, parking attendance, classroom and lunch support—you name it. Devon is currently providing tremendous support with buildings and grounds projects over the summer. His quiet efficiency and good nature are deeply appreciated by all who work with him.

I am so thrilled to be a part of the Middle Way School community, which has been a welcoming, patient, and supportive environment to which I am excited to contribute. I am looking forward to expanding my role, working directly to support students both in and out of the classroom.

In my role at Middle Way, I am drawing on a diverse range of professional experiences. After graduating from Marlboro College with a B.A. in Sociology and Education, I worked for several years creating and implementing service plans as a direct care provider for individuals with developmental differences. Upon moving to the Hudson Valley, I pursued opportunities in agriculture and the local craft beverage industry. More recently, my time at Middle Way has reminded me of the importance of supporting others, finding balance, and being part of a positive  community.

Outside of school, I spend as much time as possible with my wife Hannah and daughter Maya, exploring nature and having fun. I am also an avid musician and enjoy baking cookies.
