Alumni

Starting up something new can be daunting and does not suit everyone. Andrew King ’94 not only thinks the concept is appealing, he is excited to practice some of the same entrepreneurial methods he teaches in the classroom. The Christ School alumnus was hired in April to be the inaugural director of the Flemming Center of Entrepreneurship and Innovation at Virginia’s Hampden-Sydney College.

According to Rick Toomey ’73, one of the reasons he became a candidate for the executive director position of DEHEC was that he failed at retirement, which began in 2016, when he stepped down from being CEO of Beaufort (S.C.) Memorial Hospital.
