He defines his career, though, by the impact he’s had in teaching others.

MARIE SCHACHT is Provost for the altMBA (and alum of altMBA3). She works to help create the magic of the student experience. Outside of altMBA, Marie is in love with design. She fuels her passion by teaching high school and middle schoolers design thinking and looks for new ways, everyday to encourage people to design the future they love.

SAM MILLER is Director of Operations for the altMBA and a graduate of altMBA14. Sam's the first point of contact for applications and is always on the look out for people like us. She's a dog lover and manages to make every emergency seem small.

ALEX PECK is our Creative Director. He first worked with Seth in designing the amazing books published by The Domino Project, and also created two magnificent 800-page behemoths. Combining design and technology, Alex adds power, magic and delight to the way our students interact.

TAYLOR HARRINGTON is our Director of Digital Marketing and a proud altMBA33 alum. She makes the magic happen on our social media accounts and has a knack for strategy development. Taylor loves connecting with other humans and learning from their stories, which is why she loves the word “sonder.” So much so, that it was the topic of her TEDx talk and name of her Etsy business. You can almost always catch her sipping on green tea while listening to a podcast.

GRAYDEN SHAND brings passion for technology and design to build new tools and products for the altMBA. With an interdisciplinary background in Marketing, Data Analytics, and Software Engineering, he sees opportunities to make things better and executes them.
