(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

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.

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.
We are excited to launch GFA Connect — our first-ever, exclusive alumni online platform re-connecting you with the Greens Farms Academy community. This platform allows our esteemed alumni network to reconnect with fellow alumni and faculty, seek mentors and mentoring opportunities, get the latest on GFA events, news, and much more!
