Ace Patterson
(AKA Call Me Ace)

His world is an open songbook. From the formative years at GFA to a job at Facebook, music weaves in and out of his life, tying each experience to the next. Rapper, marketer, family man, volunteer, mentor, Patterson sees music as a way not just to fuse together the different facets of his life, but to share them with others. Read more

Being able to push myself academically, as well as being provided with resources to help flesh out what I was called to do really became a training ground for where I am now.

Charlie Hall

Drummer for the Grammy-winning The War on Drugs, alumnus Charlie Hall takes his GFA experience with him wherever he goes, and reminds us: "As we navigate our way through life both personally and professionally, what matters is how you treat others and what kind of citizen you are." Read more

Not a day goes by that I don't think of one of the many memorable lessons learned in my GFA days.

Lauren Telesz

Being a teenager is all about being surrounded by your peers, it is a period of life where you are really figuring out who you are: navigating school, extracurriculars, friends, relationships, and social media. It’s a vulnerable time for anyone, but especially a teen with cancer.

I couldn’t have found a more kindhearted community than GFA. To this day, I still feel the unmistakable warmth and character of this school.

Class of 1997

Judge Max L. Rosenberg

We sat down with Judge Max L. Rosenberg from Probate Court jurisdiction 47 and alumni of the Greens Farms Academy Class of 1997. Rosenberg currently serves as a Judge by morning, a managing partner of a law firm by afternoon, and a devoted father and husband by night. Read more

Of all the things that my parents have ever given me in my entire lifetime … those four years at GFA were, by far, the best gift I’ve been given and the greatest privilege I’ve ever received.

Lucy Biggers

Class of 2008

Lucy Biggers

Lucy Biggers’ life was forever changed in Stockholm, Sweden, standing outside of the Swedish Parliament, interviewing 16-year-old Greta Thunberg. This moment catapulted her into success. Biggers currently lives in New York City, where she works at NowThis, hosting the digital series One Small Step, sharing environmental advice, traveling extensively, learning and following her passions, as far as that will take her.

GFA didn’t put me in a box. I tried anything I wanted and more, no matter how random my passions may have seemed. I did it because I wanted to do it, and I never had to worry about being labeled.

Joli Glage D'Elia

Since graduating from GFA in 1995, Joli Glage D'Elia has been busy navigating a unique path in the health and fitness industry. D’Elia’s Charged! remains the gold standard for private Functional Strength Training, achieving incredible success over the last 15+ years since opening their doors. Their integrated approach and strategy to stay focused on what works for each individual versus the “fitness flavor of the week” has resulted in hundreds of stronger, happier and healthier clients.

The GFA community helped me see the potential that exists when we feel supported by those around us. It is not about the quantity of relationships, rather the quality. I left GFA wanting to help others and how that unfolded over the years seems pretty seamless.

We hope that you will find the platform useful and fun as you start networking with your classmates and alumni across the globe and staying up to date on what's happening on campus. Still need to register? Click here to make an account.
