During her four years in student life, Ms. Berry-Toon served as the Third and Sixth Form Dean, Associate Dean of Students, and Dean of DEIJ. She also spent eight years living and working in the Third and Fourth girls’ dorm and has coached field hockey and crew coach at both the JV/novice and varsity levels.
Ms. Berry-Toon earned her bachelor’s degree in economics and Spanish from Wellesley College and her master’s degree in private school leadership from Teachers College, Columbia University. She enjoys drinking coffee, being outside, and traveling to as many of the 63 national parks in the United States as possible.
