Todd Dalrymple

2012-2014 Fellow

A native of Ashburn, Va., Todd graduated from UNC-Chapel Hill, where he majored in Political Science and Peace, War & Defense and minored in Geography. Before arriving at the Endowment, Todd spent three years teaching elementary school for Baltimore City Public Schools through Teach for America. He earned a Master’s degree in Teaching at Johns Hopkins University’s School of Education during his time in Baltimore. As a Fellow, Todd specialized in two areas: impact investing and early childhood literacy. His impact investing work introduced Endowment staff and Trustees to the field and proposed a path toward future involvement. Todd’s assistance with the Endowment’s literacy efforts led him to pursue and complete a Master’s of Education at Harvard University following the conclusion of his Fellowship. He is now The Duke Endowment’s Associate Director of Special Initiatives.
