Noah McMillan

International Educational Consultant

Like all family businesses, the children of the proprietors are often conscripted into service and Noah was no different! So Noah has experienced McMillan Education’s multifaceted work with families and students first hand since he was old enough to be put to work. Over his many years working side-by-side with McMillan Education’s most seasoned educational consultants and benefitting from his parents’ direct mentorship and supervision, Noah developed equal expertise in school and university planning. In addition to his deep knowledge of school and university planning, Noah brings a specific skill set to his work with international families and athletes. Everyone who works with Noah appreciates his warm and positive nature and his strong skills in optimizing McMillan Education’s cutting edge technologies on behalf of students and families. Located in Siracusa, Italy, Noah regularly travels to see our international students and international school partners and keeps current on international school and university trends by making campus visits abroad.

When not working directly with families from all over the world in his role as educational consultant, Noah focuses on optimizing McMillan Education’s marketing and outreach efforts to families, schools, universities and therapeutic programs. He also oversees McMillan Education’s digital content devoted to sharing our thought leadership on a wide variety of topics related to the school, college, and admissions landscapes and education’s role in healthy student development. He plays a critical role in the development and ongoing refinement of McMillan Education’s educational planning online tools for students and families.

Noah transitioned back to McMillan Education after a hiatus trying his hand in the field of behavioral health as a Behavioral Health Professional for Pathways of Maine. In this role, he provided in-home mental health support for low income families. This experience reignited his passion for finding the right educational journey for students.

Noah also has worked on a number of federal, state and local political roles in Massachusetts, where he combined his interest in the foundations and practices of democracy with his communications skills. He served as a social media consultant for a fitness company. An enthusiastic contributor to McMillan Education’s community service initiatives, Noah loves guiding Beacon Academy students, who are from under-resourced families in the Greater Boston area, in their journey from boarding school to college.

The consummate student-athlete and a product of the work that is at the core of McMillan Education’s mission, Noah attended independent day and boarding schools over the course of his elementary, middle and secondary education, and has worked as a lacrosse and hockey coach. A graduate of Avon Old Farms School, much of Noah’s early educational journey was influenced by his love for and talent in athletics. Prior to attending boarding school at Avon Old Farms, where he played football and lacrosse, Noah attended The Fay School and St. Sebastian’s School, where he discovered his passion for Classical Studies and also played hockey and lacrosse. He began his undergraduate studies at The College of the Holy Cross, where he declared his major in Classics and played Varsity Football. After being medically sidelined from his Division I Football career at Holy Cross, Noah decided to transfer and ended up at Tufts University, where he graduated with a degree in Classical Studies with a concentration in political philosophy.

In his free time, Noah is an avid reader of ancient history and philosophy and insatiable Boston sports fan. He lives La Doce Vida in Siracusa, Italy with his wife Molly, who loves travel, adventure, hiking, and training for Spartan Races all across Europe as much as Noah does. When he is not enjoying his work with international and US students, you can find Noah and Molly hiking Mt Aetna, swimming in the Ionian Sea, or strolling among the ruins of ancient Rome and Greece with Noah’s pup McMillan Education’s Chief Wisdom Officer, Socrates, and his sidekick Baker.
