About the teachers
Ms. Paris
(Paris Gramann)
I am the Assistant Director of the Center for Entrepreneurial Leadership (CEL Program) at Springside Chestnut Hill Academy (SCH). At SCH, I teach 6th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grade Social Impact Entrepreneurship. I have a small business called Empower Creative Agency LLC where I work with adults on project management for creative endeavors. I also am a part-time Design Researcher for Drexel University on two Social Impact/Product Design Research Projects. I love helping people (of all ages!) find their passions and turn them into reality!
Ms. Julie
(Julie Knutson)
I'm an author-educator based in the Chicago-area, who is beyond thrilled to be working with SCH's young social entrepreneurs this term!
Prior to shifting to life as a full-time writer, I taught middle and high school history, worked as a curriculum writer for an arts non-profit, and curated book collections for K-12 libraries. When I'm not typing away at my computer, I can be found chasing my 7 year-old son, Theo or 1.5 year old border collie!
