Additional Board Members

Trish McCarty - Board Member

Trish McCarty is one of America's leading business strategy and education experts on developing peak performance through brain-based training, self esteem, motivation, and results. She has inspired thousands with her lectures, interviews and published articles and books. She has been an impassioned leader for k-12 education reform, alongside her corporate banking and technology backgrounds.

Trish was born in Frankfurt, Germany, the daughter of a U.S. Air Force career serviceman and as a child in Tokyo, Japan, served on the United Nations Board of Children. Her mother was a stay at home Mom, teaching English and flower arranging to Japanese students. The family permanent home was among relatives in Durango, Colorado. Her childhood view of the world was full of possibilities. After her beloved father became ill, she became interested in brain processes, ancient health and wellbeingpractices and began a rigorous study of Yoga at twenty years of age. As she raised her own children, she incorporated many of her discoveries to help them through their education. After achieving INC Magazine's Top CEOs in banking awards, McCarty wanted to help education.

STARSHINE ACADEMY INTERNATIONAL SCHOOLS opened in the fall of 2002 for k-12 high-risk children, on a crime-ridden street in Arizona. The “Peace Academy” is a replicable model for success based on the philosophy of health, wealth, happiness, body, mind, and spirit. It integrates the environment and personal health with a permaculture garden and the spirit with music and art. All of the children participate in community service projects integrated into the curriculum.

Celebrating and inspiring unique differences in all people has made STARSHINE ACADEMY a bright example of the finest in education. A group from the United Nations held a 38-country summit on peace and sustainability at the school and installed a peace pole during an observance from 9-11---21-04. Each year STARSHINE hosts the United Nations Day of International Peace Art Contest for Children on Sept. 21. The schools received the highest international accreditation this past year from CITA, the Commission on International Transatlantic Accreditation.

Trish acted on her belief that we teach and create value by developing assets in our young students or we pay for them later as they become liabilities to society. McCarty believes that every person deserves the best education available as it directly impacts the economic and social growth of a community as well as the world. She also believes in educating the “whole child”. Trish McCarty was made a Lincoln Center Fellow from Arizona State University and in November 2004, Los Angeles Music Awards named Trish Humanitarian of the Year.
