Guybe joined SFFS in 2009 from the Head-Royce School where he was the Dean of Students in the high school. Over his 15 years in education, his focus has always been to expand and enhance learning beyond the traditional classroom walls. Whether it’s leading students to China on summer trips or taking them to serve meals at local food pantries, Guybe believes strongly that learning has the greatest impact through experience. Guybe is a graduate of Dickinson College and completed his Master’s degree in Educational Leadership at Columbia University’s Teachers College. He has served on the boards of the Northern California POCIS (People of Color in Independent Schools), the Asian Educators Alliance, and has presented workshops at NAIS’ People of Color Conference. When not at school, Guybe can be found on various forms of transportation: his bike, surfboard, or skis. He and his partner, Susan, live in Oakland with their daughter, Livi.
