Douglas Bowker, Trustee
Doug is a full-time freelance 3D Animator, with a specialty in technical and architectural visualization. He has a BA in Industrial Design from the Rhode Island School of Design. His son Colin attended Harborlight Montessori starting in Children's House (at the age of three) and continued on through the sixth grade of Upper Elementary, giving him a solid foundation of intellectual curiosity that will last a lifetime. Seeing the way each student's needs were not just met, but often anticipated in advance by his son's teachers has made Doug a dedicated advocate of Harborlight and the Montessori Method.
