Roger Fuller - Principal, Upper School

Roger Fuller was born and brought up in New England, spending many years teaching in Maine where he worked as a teacher, department chair and theatre director. When he made the journey to Milken in 1999, he knew that he had made his professional "Aliayah" and had found here a new community, new friends, and a family of caring families.

His wife, Gina, joined Milken as a math teacher in 2001, continuing the tradition they have shared for 30 year of teaching in the same school. While he thoroughly enjoys the position of Principal of the Upper School, he also completely enjoys teaching Grade 9 English. After spending so many years in the North East, the promises of living in Los Angeles continue to delight him.
