Integrity, focus and the multi-faceted educational expertise of Boomerang Project co-founder Carolyn Hill have played vital roles in guiding the growth of the company and developing dynamic material as chief of curricula.  After 15 years motivating and transforming students as a highly respected English teacher and an Activities Director, Carolyn did what she never imagined doing: she left the classroom. The impetus for this decision was her participation in the very first Link Crew training in 1993. After effectively implementing the program at two different schools, and seeing the dramatic impact it could have creating an exciting new spirit of success among students, she wanted every school to have access to such an inventive, results-oriented transition model.

Carolyn began as the Link Crew Program Director, providing critical consulting perspective and an ability to identify solutions for the real challenges faced by schools across the country. Deeply intuitive, she is a practiced listener who connects with people adeptly and understands how to deftly build confidence, and a sense of security. Carolyn’s commitment to excellence, extensive classroom experience, and enthusiastic presentation style as a lead trainer has been the catalyst for change in hundreds of schools.  Every aspect of her life is lived around the Boomerang Project philosophy of “you get back what you give.”

Co-founder Mary Beth, Boomerang Project’s chief visionary, is deeply and sincerely passionate about making the world a better place. Her far-reaching talents, which include a love of singing and a nearly limitless supply of exciting new creative concepts, are only superseded by her personal standards of excellence. 

 A graduate of San Diego State University with a degree in English, Mary Beth was an exceptional high school English teacher and ran an award-winning journalism program before her work with Link Crew. She directed the highly successful student transition program at her high school for five years. During that period, she discovered the profoundly life-altering value of Link Crew and saw the possibility of how it could change even the most challenged educational setting. 

 After leaving the classroom, Mary Beth became a lead trainer for both Link Crew and WEB, the WEB Program Director as well as the company’s Marketing Director. Her tenacity and focus has helped double the size of the Boomerang Project outreach and she is now developing a new line of exciting social responsibility products, which will be marketed to both consumers and schools.
