Where will Waynflete take you?
Waynflete changes trajectories and transforms lives. Every class is designed for students to take the lead and our school culture inspires caring participation in the world.
Whether it’s stepping into an astronaut’s shoes to experience a space shuttle launch to engaging in a simulation to see if they can stop the Great War, Waynflete challenges students to be at the center of their own learning. We enable students to investigate subjects themselves, form their own opinions, listen to opposing views, and set ambitious goals.
When your education unlocks your potential and prepares you for anything, you are capable of reaching any goal—surrounded by a community of caring adults who are there to support you and who cannot wait to see where you go.

Zoe Sobol ’09
Khatmandu, Nepal
After graduating from Waynflete and taking a gap year, I majored in psychology and competed on the varsity cross-country, basketball, and track teams at Wellesley College. While in school—and after graduating—I worked at WBUR, Boston’s NPR station, producing the station’s award-winning coverage of the trial of convicted Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev as well as covering sports for NPR’s nationally syndicated sports show Only A Game. In 2016, I moved to Unalaska, Alaska, to work as a reporter at KUCB. I then moved to Kathmandu as a Luce Scholar. After a summer of intensive Nepali classes, I’ve started work at The Record, an English-language online publication, helping them develop podcasts.
Dallas Rolnick ’97
Kauns, Austria
After Waynflete, I studied literature at Colorado College. After graduating, I returned to Portland, where I started to develop an interest in furniture-making and construction. I moved to New Orleans, where I stayed for more than ten years, working in construction and opening a small woodshop. While there, I went back to school to study civil engineering. I won two research stipends—the Marshall Plan Scholarship and a Fulbright research award—and eventually moved to Austria, where I began working at a construction company designing wooden buildings. I live in Kauns, a village high on a mountainside overlooking an Alpine valley. It’s a privilege to be part of a community with people who are rooted, hardworking, straightforward, and caring. While I dearly miss the American landscapes and long horizons that I grew up with, I don’t know if or when I will move back to the U.S.
David Terrien ’86
London, U.K.
After Waynflete I spent 12 years studying and working in New York City. I moved to London in 1997 and have lived there ever since. I am married to a Spaniard, Teresa, and we have two daughters: Clara, who is in her first year of college, and Ines, an eighth-grader. I have worked as an editor for most of my professional life, usually for magazines, currently for ArtReview and ArtReview Asia, which are focused on contemporary art and culture.
Ian Rummier ’09
Copenhagen, Denmark
After Waynflete I completed a BA in political science and international studies at Denison University, worked on the Obama campaign, and ran what was at the time the most popular urban music blog. I moved to Denmark in 2013 to complete an MSc in comparative public policy. Since then, I’ve represented the Danish national lacrosse team in the European championships in 2016 and the World Games last year. Professionally, I’ve been CMO of Nordic Startup Awards and founded my own creative agency last year called VIDA, which produces music videos and advertising for some of the biggest artists and brands in Denmark. I also run social media for the biggest music festival in Northern Europe (Roskilde) and am a manager at a local concert venue called Rust.
Laura Siegle ’02
Colombia
I majored in cultural anthropology at Wesleyan University. After graduating, I taught ninth grade in rural Hawai’i through Teach For America, then moved to New York and worked at a Latin American art museum for a few years. I volunteered at an education development organization called the DREAM Project in the Dominican Republic, later returning as a teacher, summer camp director, and professional development coach. Newly determined to stay in education, I entered a master’s program at Columbia Teachers College in sociology and education and began teaching at a public middle school in Manhattan, where I still teach today. I was awarded a scholarship through the Fulbright Distinguished Awards in Teaching Program and will go to Colombia to complete my inquiry project.
Robert Christie ’88
Hong Kong
I went on to Bowdoin, then landed in New York City to start a career in publishing. When an opportunity to join a technology company in Asia opened up in 1999, I packed a duffel bag and moved to Hong Kong, where I continue to live today. I now work as a banking consultant and advise on ways to combat money laundering in the global financial system. When I’m not working, I spend much of my free time scuba diving in waters around Asia, taking photographs of life both above and below the water.
Sheila Morrison ’80
Costa Rica
I earned a BA in Latin American studies from Brown University. After graduating, I headed west to San Francisco (my goal was to get to Latin America). After a few rewarding years, I was accepted to Harvard Business School. At the end of my second year, I landed a summer internship with Dole Food Company in Colombia, which led to a full-time job in Costa Rica. I had made it to Latin America!
Twenty years later, I still live in Costa Rica with my Argentine husband and two kids. My passion for Latin America has slowly morphed into a passion for agribusiness. I served as Chiquita’s regional director for Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, then left the banana world for the kiwifruit world with Zespri International, where I am responsible for northern hemisphere supply operations.
