A Montreal native, Craig knew little of boarding schools but had friends traveling south to play hockey; they encouraged him to look at Millbrook. “I was on campus for about five minutes and just fell in love with it right away. I knew it was the place I wanted to be,” said Craig, recalling his first Millbrook visit in 1996. He enrolled as a Vth former and embraced the academic and athletic rigor and the atmosphere of “true buy-in from everyone on campus."

After Millbrook, Trinity College offered a similar environment, and there he earned a degree in economics while continuing to play hockey and baseball. As it came time to choose a professional path, Craig refocused his aspirations on education and independent schools. “The only way I could truly give back to those who had done so much for me was to try to give back to other kids,” says Craig.

Craig served in a variety of independent school admission roles before taking on his current position as director of admissions at the
American School of Dubai. While adjusting to life overseas, Craig has broadened his expertise to include enrollment management, strategic admissions, and an advancement role in which he uses his economics degree to apply research methodologies, data, and technology.
